Ticking..

[c_st_718]

Hey everyone..
I have a 20 ram 1500 bighorn Hemi...she started ticking very slightly a couple months back...change the oil (redline 5w30) and a k&n filter..drove it for about 1k Miles and it seems to have gotten worse. No check engine lights, just loud whenever I have it on. Seems to get faster as I accelerate.. seems to go away around 50-55 MPH..it is driving me absolutely crazy..the manifold bolts seem to be okay when I lifted it...
Also seems to be coming from the passenger side if that helps at all..I'm assuming it's a lifter, but maybe you guys have some input.



Thanks!

If it's still under warranty, take it in so that the problem is on record.

It could be the Hemi tick. It could be a failing lifter. It could be just about anything.

Maybe it's a cracked manifold.

What?!?! A Hemi engine with a tick? Whoever heard of such a thing?

search is your friend. Also what are your truck specs?
