Don’t tell me it’s a Hemi tick

[jerome32]

Glad to hear they are taking care of the issue, makes me feel better about ordering a Ram

Yeah I’m still happy with the truck. I’d buy another one.

Well, this is a happy ending. New motor. sweet.

Glad to hear there is some sort of resolution.

I want one. Again today, 3888 miles in and oil changed about 1200 miles ago.....someone said "nice truck, why does it sound like that"? It really does sound crappy idling in a parking lot, in gear.

Are you having the same issue?

 

[whitexc]

I don't think it's a knock as described here....just that crappy sound from the exhaust manifolds or whatever right up front. Hard to explain. It isn't a tick but it sounds like that. It sounds sloppy, with chatter almost.

Like this?

Yessir. It's not nice, no matter how normal or ok they say it is. When other people notice it it's bad.

I’m assuming you’ve taken it to the dealership?

 

[RAM_Dad]

It’s extremely common, my neighbor has the Hemi and I hear the exact same thing from his. There’s a whole thread about it.

People keep telling me to tighten my fan belt

 

[RAM_Dad]

I have a Hemi on order, I’m positive it’s exhaust somewhere but I bet go mad before I figure it out

People always tell me to tighten my belt when my pants fall down!!

I have not, only due to just about every Hemi sounding similar. I have to take it in to have the good 'ol TPMS checked out as it likes to work when it wants to so maybe I can have the exhaust noise "checked". I am fairly certain I know the results.

So the truck is still at the dealership. Apparently Ram wants them to change the intake manifold and it’s on back order. Originally it was supposed to be here on the 26th then the 30th now it’s sept 6th. So probably not getting my truck back till around mid September I dropped it off at the current dealership around the begging of July. This is getting kind of ridiculous at this point I think.

Maybe tell them to buy you a Ford and keep the truck

 

[jerome32]

Oh man I’d never own a new Ford. I am a fan of the bumpsides and dent sides. 67-79. I also am a fan of the 87-96 also but that’s it.

yes that would have me more than frustrated. I would be fighting for a new truck.

Yeah I’m trying to be patient with them but it’s starting to wear thin. Unfortunately NC lemon law states it had to be back 4 times for the same repair and in the shop over 20 days which I have that covered but it’s only been to the shop twice.

I would think at some point days in the shop trump times in the shop. seems like 60 days in the shop would trump 4X's and 20 days.
