2013 Ram 1500 5.7 is popping noise, could be clicking.. sounds like water dripping into a bucket or popcorn popping. Had 5 diagnostics done today by 5 AUTOCARE including The Mothership.. All gave different problems.. No recalls on my vin, but Dodge has lied prior on a recall. It’s not a fast ticking noise, I can hear it idling. And doesn’t pop faster with RPM

 

This is a well know problem with the 5.7 and fairly easy to fix. Look for the solution on a Ram truck or any website that specializes in 5.7 trucks/cars. I don't have one, and I can't remember the exact details. It's in the rocker/cam follower area. You NEED to fix it though before it gets expensive.
