 Subject: Ticking
IP: Logged
Message:
I have a ticking in or near my engine.
The ticking is intermittent during idle (ticks once then wont tick for 15 seconds, then ticks in 2 seconds)
During driving the ticking is only on acceleration.
Any thoughts? Besides piston slap or valves.

its not the injectors. if it were it would be a steady continuous tick. who cares anyway? does it affect the performance of your truck. probably not. if it gets worse then start to worry. and its a truck rally it dont baby it.

My engine started ticking at about 6,000 miles. Has gotten progressively worse over the last 15,000 miles (can hear it from about 25 feet away -- w/ a Magnaflow exhaust). Dealership says it's normal for a Dodge engine to tick.

Ok, after taking my truck to the dealer for the 60,000 mile service ($1100.00, f*ckers) they found the source of the ticking and it was my timing belt tensioner. Replaced for $50 with the added care warrenty. Problem solved, for now.

My 99 5.2L 4x4 has same tic, brought it in under warr when it was 3 mos. old and they said it was normal EGR solenoid sound. It did not start to do it until it was 3 mos. old. Still doing it now and it has 40K on it. Another Dakota added feature.

I got a 97. My does a ticking sound similar to Kyle's. I replaced the timing chain. It fixed the rattling when the truck is parked just idling. But there is still another ticking, probably a loose heat shield or some bull sh*t like that.

My noise comes at the same times as the original poster, only it's not a tick, it's a really annoying rattle. Sounds like a bearing in the trans or transfer case. Only at idle, or under acceleration. Comes and goes at idle, really embarrassing at the bank's drive-thru. Anyone else have this prob? I have heard it on another 4x4 Dak at a stoplight once. RATTLERATTLE then quiet, then repeat. Mine's a 98 3.9 4x4.
