Thanks, I also have a clamp meter I used on my boat to track/mesure DC amp draws for a multitude of things. I wish we had a schmatic and/or pictures of all those ground connections on this truck. Before my 24 limited went in for a new engine (yes, ugh with only 7100 miles), I noticed the battery...

How did you find it? I would imagine there a tons of places with ground wires throughout the truck

Did I mention the Charger burns my A$$ right out of the seat on high? My gosh. Have to switch to low less than 3 miles after starting and being in freezing temps. My Limited doesn’t get anywhere near that hot (it’s not bad, but this seat is amazing). Not sure if cloth seats have something to do...

Yeah, oil changes probably have more to do with long term engine reliability, but I really did this to also establish a relationship with the local dealer given this was purchased from Mark Dodge 2000 miles away. Anyway, yes they have ordered a new long block due to arrive this Friday or Monday...

Okay, I guess the battery voltage etc was not the major issue. The POP AND GRINDING NOISE WAS. it’s called a broken piston in cylindernumber 7! Soooo, after just 7100 miles I need a new engine. Had the oil changed at 1000 and 3000 miles. Any thoughts as to what caused this? Simply a faulty part?

Not sure if it means anything but I did just happen to get a “health report”update in the Ram app while the dealer has been starting and stopping the engine while diagnosing the truck. The health report says Electronic Throttle Control. ECT failure. It may mean nothing but it does make sense...

I assume you are still waiting on a new battery pack (the lithium one I assume)? I just created a new post/thread of the battery (the regular one) going dead this morning with only 10 months and 7100 miles. I got this software update back on November 7th so I’ll assume it’s not the culprit...

2024 Limited with approx 7100 miles. Received it this last Feb and I believe it was built last Nov.Dec. Last Friday I went to use the remote start and it didn’t work. When I did start it manually it was revving, then almost stalling. So I shut it off for a few minutes restarted and everything...

So two issues/challenges I think. I started the truck this morning and recorded this. Definitely not the same tick, if at all as the one I made Saturday. Also, I had previously driven the truck Saturday maybe 3-5 miles max and upon arriving home when I first heard this. I’ll take it for a...

Yeah, what’s bothering me is the desk service tech didn’t ask for my video to show the actual tech. If I was looking for something a customer is complaining about, I would first look at a video (if they took one) showing the issue before I checked it out myself.

Very helpful! I’ll look at this tomorrow and see what I can determine. Having said that, if this turned out to be as obvious as yours knowing the local dealership said, “no issue”, I would not be pleased.

interesting. I was watching a video earlier today showing a guy (with a strong accent) replacing his manifolds. I’ll have to look again to get a better feel of where I can see the manifold shield. You are saying best access is through my wheel well? Does that mean I need to remove the tire to...

Yeah, there is another dealer 30-40 miles away. I’m thinking about the possibility of calling them tomorrow but upfront that I’ve already been to my local dealer and telling them what I want to verify and see if they will look or push me away. It’s quite clannish up here in Vermont between dealers.

The paperwork says “could not duplicate my concern, and found no exhaust leak. No DTC’s, no oil leaks and oil pressure is normal”

👍

Dealership looked at it his morning. Said it’s not an issue or a problem, but normal sound of the Hemi during break in. 🙄. I hope they are correct. All I can do is continue to drive and listen to see if the sound get louder/worse.

Haven’t had a chance to really run it since yesterday. Either later today or for sure tomorrow I’ll be able to get a better feel for the sound.

Geesssh. I hope not. If they can’t replace before my Virginia trip later this month, what are the chances I can still drive it or will this get much worse or cause other issues?

Sorry, just switched to public. Yeah, I agree and will swing by without even an appt tomorrow, at the very least to get one.

See (really LISTEN) to the link to a quick video/audio I made yesterday. I’ve read quite a bit about the Hemi tick here and I’m wondering if this is it? I own a 2024 Limited E-tourque. Only have 3500 miles over almost 6 months. Have been very happy with this truck so far. Just yesterday I...
