Nope. 3 dealers and a star case later nobody took it seriously. All dealers told me they couldn't replicate even though I took videos of the truck knocking in their parking lots when I picked it up after they "looked" at it. I was able to finally get one dealer to admit that they never heard the...

I have a 2019 that the warranty expired Sept/Oct last year due to time. Truck has 52k. Just started having manifold issues earlier this week. Anybody have any success getting ram to cover as a hardship/good faith fix since it is just outside of warranty?

Have always used synthetic and regularly change my oil. 50,600 on truck now. Truck runs like garbage. Bad hesitation/jerking/missing under throttle going up even slight hills. Feels like a transmission shudder. MDS sounds god awful with audible detonation/spark knock. Dealer confirmed rapid...

dealer didn't even mention manifolds or exhaust bolts when I took it in. It does quiet down but I am pretty confident that it still taps once warm. It is hard to tell while driving because I have ridge grappler tires and the road noise. But if I can hear tapping while sitting in a drive through...

Reviving my own thread. Truck still taps/knocks if not worse than before. My powertrain ran out in September. Both dealers I've been too did nothing when it was still under warranty. I had a Ram"cares" case open that was absolutely worthless and they just told me there was nothing I could do...

here are two videos of mine from a week or so ago. Been to dealers several times. I either get told it sounds normal or they couldn't reproduce the sound. My powertrain ran out in September. Only have 50k on the truck. Don't know what to do.

2nd dealer had it one day and said couldn't duplicate. They didn't even hook it up to a computer to check for misfires or anything. I picked the truck up 2 days later because I was out of town and the truck knocked in their parking lot. Took video of it for documentation. Ramcares/Stellantis...

What leveling method did you go with and Do you have the ORP? Looks great.

Made a service appt with a different local ram dealer. Their lead tech actually took time to listen to the videos I sent and he sent me an email that he has some theories but didn’t want to say anything else until they look at it. Earliest appt was 3rd week of March.

Found a video on YouTube that sounds exactly like mine that was lifter/cam related. Listen at the 44 second mark. 🤷‍♂️

there was another user in this thread that had the same sound as mine and his cam was destroyed by a failed lifter. I went to the dealer after they called to tell me they were done with it and I talked to the tech that worked on my truck. I had him listen to the videos to see if the noises he...

Service advisor called and said he found that an MDS solenoid was broken and falling apart. They replaced and said the misfires have gone away. They heard a slight tap after they put it back together and compared to a new truck on the lot so they are done with it for now. Pretty sure this saga...

I do most of the time...don’t always disable it though.

A little bit of an update....truck is at the garage now. I told them about the cold start knocking and the audible spark knock under heavier acceleration. I just got a call that they couldn't reproduce the cold start knocking. I have more videos from earlier this week of the knocking. Adviser...

Negative. Haven't gotten around to taking it back in...problems haven't changed.

No update. Haven't gotten around to make another appointment yet but will probably call soon since I am sure they are a month out for service appointments. Am waiting for winter to make sure that it is cold enough for them to hear it. The problem hasn't gone away, still happens nearly every...

Video from this morning.

Sorry to hear that. Dealer had mine for 2 days and couldn't produce symptoms. It had been relatively hot in the mornings on those days so I don't think they were able to do a true cold start. On colder mornings since I have had the truck back it has knocked. All I can do at this point is...

Unfortunately no. Something came up and had to reschedule my service appointment. Got pushed back to 8/17...

Awesome. I figured they would chalk it up to some exhaust leak, which it is not. Typical dealer trying to avoid the actual problem and costlier repair. I expect them to say the same when I take mine in or just say that it sounds normal...
