Curiously watching this thread as it's always good to know how others resolve or make it through odd codes and engine issues.

@kbar691 Same here- I recorded a before video of the noise (prior to the replacements) and man, it was a tick-fest on both sides. Now its just a light sound on the passenger side and only happens after warmup. Though, the full on tick before the repair was the same —silent for start and warmup...

Same! As soon as I suspected a collapsed lash adjuster, my OCD has me constantly listening for some type of engine noise lol ~ my brother tells me Im mental. 😆 From all the videos Ive watched on YT with various refreshes and part replacements, all of them had successful results reusing the cams...

Very interesting. None of the OG parts were bad? Holy hell. Eagerly awaiting the follow-up on the cam change out and if anything else happens to be suspect. 🤘

Ok, good then you know well enough that they're solid. On changing everything out: didn't you have them changed already with the exception of the cams? Maybe Im thinking another thread with a different JK. But if you already did, I wouldn't bother. However, when that cam comes out I'd ask the...

And all the rockers and lash adjusters look good / sound (don't rattle) tight? Im guessing the mechanic is rotating that timing to check them all? Because depending on where the cams are positioned they can hold a damaged rocker follower tight in its place. Why not just say "eff it" while in...

😂 I ASSume that's an analogy to the doctors bill.

OP, you have it listed at over 100 grand. 😶

Oooh man, internet YT beef? The guy above did a video on the other guy above:

Here's a guy who's always addressing tick issues in clients 3.6 equipped vehicles. Talks about it quite regularly and says that gen 3 of the Pentastar is the most refined:

I forget the fault code, (don't want to "know it" actually 🙈) but it's certainly been an issue with various JK's. Maybe more on the other 'wrangler' forum. I forget, because I often surf there too for JK info since it is quite robust for that gen. Where as for my TJ, I strictly surf Chris's...

I enjoy this guy's channel and appreciate his opinion. What does the community think? 😂

This is an interesting thread. I don't have any shift issues, but it seems my phones MPH is two miles off from the speedo. So maybe I can gain a tip from whatever is shared here.

I would be so 100 percent into an I6. But it's all the technology tethered to it that makes it undesirable for me at this stage.

Nice! Enjoy Spring break 💯 Good theory, but wouldn't that mean the tick would be cyclical and have a pattern?

Intermittent is odd, for sure. As most technicians say, it's a complex engine. Post up a vid, if you can. Im curious to hear this tick sound. Sometimes my engine can sound ticky, but Im starting to think Im over-listening thinking there's something wrong, when there isn't.

So you want to unload what you currently have and plan on replacing them with 5 fresh new wheels and tires?

Worked for me as well. OP, double check your VIN is correct. Or maybe he ghosted too......

The older Jeep gen, 1997 to 2006. The TJ, in my opinion, is more reliable and DIY-able than the latter 2007 and up. Caveat is that the 07 to 2011's had the 3.8 and they're proving to go upwards lf 200k.

When my battery died, I didn't get didly click anything. Just key turn and nothing. New Duracell "Batteries Plus" store (East Penn Manufacturing) and it's been golden since.
