Whats up guys just got my 2020 ram 1500 5.7 hemi. Right after start up i hear a thud. Done some reading and they say it has to do with brake being pressed. Also after there are some "tink" noises. Any thoughts. Every bit of advice would be appreciated . I tried to post the video but check it out on my you tube channel @ desertstyle . Thanks guys

Exact same thing happens to my 2020 1500 5.7 sometimes, doesn’t happen all the time and it hasn’t changed anything with the performance of the truck.
i would say contact the dealer if it keeps happening or is effecting the performance.

I agree. Been reding alot on these threads. Speaking of light pressing break , the bendix ext. Ill have to do some experiments i suppose also ask the dealer if my software is up to date. Ill post results.

The strange start up noises on mine have gone away since I began removing my foot from the brake pedal the moment it begins to turn over

Do you have the auto parking break turned on when shifting into park? I shift into neutral, then put parking break on, left off break to let the parking break catch and then shift to park. Mind you this on a decline. The thump when starting up has now disappeared. The load on the tranny was probably the cause of the thump.

Im going to try it today. I just so used to my dart and the manuel cable parking break. This one is electronic.
