I bought a low mileage 2012
I bought a low mileage 2012 dodge charger I travel a lot and now have 45,000 miles on my pride and joy . I've noticed a ticking when I start it up on a cool morning and when I take off before the car is fully heated up it gets much louder but when car is at full running temp you can hardly hear it run as its always been. I called the dealer where I bought my car and now they are telling me it may be a while before its fixed and are trying to put me in a different car. I fully understand the issue and why one would want to get away from this powertrain but in my eyes this problem is the motor itself not the car it's in therefore if I was to transfer over into a challenger or another charger or jeep etc would I not have exactly the same issue eventually? The only cure I see is to either get a car that's already got updated heads or go to a 5.7 hemi or bigger in my particular situation .
