You'll probably get as many opinions on this as replies. So I'll chime in with what I'm using. I changed my oil at around 1k miles. Switched to Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5w 20 at that time. Almost 4500 miles now, and I haven't heard the tick since the change. But I only ever heard it once before that. I had 22k miles on my 4th gen (2017 Rebel w/hemi). I switched to PUP on that truck when I did the first oil change at 3k miles. Again, no hemi tick after the switch to PUP. That engine did have the tick occasionally. Usually only if I restarted the engine after only being shut down for a short time (less than an hour). But, again, it stopped doing it after changing to PUP.
