I have a 2009 Aspen and noticed a really loud clicking sound from the engine a couple of days ago. We have had the Aspen for about 1.5 years and have never heard this loud clicking. I know that some people say the Hemi's click but this is a new sound and it is really loud. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I am still under warrenty so I will probably be taking it in.

Thanks

 

If it happens at startup, this might be of help:

Thanks 15951a\, I'm taking it to the dealer tomorrow so I'll post after I get it back to let you know if that was the problem.

 

Sorry to get off track here but don't you think it's funny they named it the >>>>>>ASPEN?

(1979 Dodge Aspen lol)

 

Not sure what you mean by that TNtech, but it has nothing to do with my situation.

Anyway, just picked up the Aspen and two bolts from the exhaust manifold broke so that is why the exhaust was making the clicking/ticking sound.

Alls well that ends well.

 

Thanks for the update. This seems to be a fairly common problem mentioned on the Durango message boards.

 

My bet is that you have a 4.7. The exhaust manifold bolts on the 4.7's are known to break, but not on the hemi's.

 

Just for clarification, I do have the 5.7L Hemi. I wouldn't be able to tow the 23' Toy hauler if I didn't .

 

Thats good to know, first I heard of it on a Hemi. 4.7's really common, but doesnt appear to be so common on the hemis. Thanks.

 

I have the same problem on my 2007 Hemi V8 5.7 liter. Did anyone figure this out? Do the bolts break on the 5.7 too?
