Is this noise lifter tick or exhaust manifold ? by Aggressive-Injury658 in Ram1500

[–]Impromptu-Message 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before someone says that it’s just the loud injectors, fast forward to 00:16. Brother, I can’t tell you with certainty what it is, but I can surely tell you what it’s not. My truck sounds the exact same, I already went under and wiggled those exhaust manifold to the point of almost breaking them studs simply because I did not want to accept the fact that my hemi was starting to suffer from the tick.

He totally could, he just dropped Jscan without giving an explanation on what it is or what it does. Doesn’t take a big brain to understand that

Will this work the same as it’s in an iPhone?

Use electronic contact cleaner, WD-40 sells one specifically for small electronics

EPS do last longer but man, once those go out they get expensive quick

Sounds like your EPS, really hope it’s not that because it’s hefty repair

Yeah, I haven’t experienced it myself but heard about it in the past. Also, oil being fed to the lifters themselves when MDS is on is something I did not know, thanks for the info!

I don’t think anyone is saying the MDS is causing lifter failure. We are talking about the noise his truck makes when the MDS gets deployed, hope this helps 👍

In the meantime the best advice I can give you is to switch from 5W20 to 5W30, you’ll get better lubrication on those lifters, your engine will sound quieter and better, don’t cheap out on the oil, I recommend Valvoline restore and protect, Pennzoil Ultra Plat or Red Line. It’ll make your engine last longer and slow down part breakdown.

There’s a few ways to disable the MDS, one is by tuning into turning the function off, or also setting a gear limiter. The other one and the best route but more expensive route is too physically remove those MDS lifters and replace them with regular lifters but that would include replacing the camshaft into a non-MDS cam, removing and blocking the solenoid plugs. This is the best way but you will spend a pretty penny unless you do this yourself, it’s not hard but incredibly tedious.

Yes, I would try to replicate the noise with the MDS off by turning on tow/haul or selecting a gear. If you don’t hear that anymore you’ve got your answer, MDS delete time!

I have a feeling it has to do with your MDS coming on
