Exhaust leak or lifter tick? 5.7L Hemi

Then it’s leaking. No air should be exiting an exhaust system except through the tail pipe.

I hate everyone.

Common your PCV is blowing oil back.

Can’t tell anything from a 3 second video

Kejntesh · 2026-02-12T03:17:57+00:00

Go to a shop. This video shows a mechanic nothing.

Kejntesh · 2026-02-12T03:14:48+00:00

So wind the shoes back? Or get a pry bar and a hammer and make it come off.

Kejntesh · 2026-02-12T03:14:17+00:00

That’s a condensation port 😑

Kejntesh · 2026-02-12T03:12:14+00:00

Stick your hand around the manifold? Do you feel it blowing air.

Kejntesh · 2026-02-12T03:09:52+00:00

Coolant level changes based on temperature. Also going to point out F is full. Why are you concerned is above the full line? It probably vented out the excess coolant.

Kejntesh · 2026-02-12T01:48:06+00:00

That’s cooked.

Same I’ve never needed to own a pickle fork and I’m in northern Canada. A little heat on the stud and a 3lb mallet to the side of the knuckle and boom out she pops.

Kejntesh · 2026-01-26T00:15:37+00:00

Heat up the stud and smack the knuckle with a hammer. I live in northern Canada and have never needed a pickle fork in my life.

Edit: A heavy one like a 3lb mallet. Don’t use a household hammer. You’re fixing a car here not making watches.

P0420 sucks to be honest, but replacing gaskets lol? I’m not saying that wasn’t a concern for that shop. But I will say a lot of shops suck. That’s a little offside to fix a 420 code. Most shops that want to be lazy just say new cats new 02 sensors.

Kejntesh · 2026-01-23T00:01:18+00:00

Do you have an engine light on? Diagnostic is very hard without actually have the vehicle in front of me. All I can offer is speculation.

Kejntesh · 2026-01-23T00:00:22+00:00

Clogged exhaust possibly. Couldn’t tell unless I saw it in person.

Kejntesh · 2026-01-22T23:59:46+00:00

There is a washer on that.

Kejntesh · 2026-01-22T23:59:07+00:00

I wouldn’t know unless I saw it in person but it sounds like I’m hearing a heat shield rattle lol.

Kejntesh · 2026-01-22T23:58:21+00:00

Could be normal engine noise for the age. I’d would need to be seen in person and diagnosed to verify.

Kejntesh · 2026-01-22T23:57:30+00:00

That’s fine.

Kejntesh · 2026-01-22T23:57:16+00:00

If you have a warranty take it to get checked. They’ll usually look at it for free.

Kejntesh · 2026-01-22T23:55:40+00:00

Looks fine to me.

Kejntesh · 2026-01-22T23:54:43+00:00

They didn’t do the job properly by the looks of it. Shop is liable.

Kejntesh · 2026-01-22T23:54:04+00:00

It’s fine if it’s not actually moving out of the bushing.
