In need of some assistance. Dodge Ram 2014 Hemi Tick.Presented the issue within the past three days.
Quick Pre-amble
-I have broken studs on my exhaust manifolds. Tick Doesn't sound like an exhaust leak, but this is something I probably got used to when driving. These items will be changed.
-The water pump changed due to wobbling shaft, idler pulley, belt tensioner, belt, and thermostat.
-Engine oil drained and re-filled, oil inspected with a magnet for particles with no defects noted. Filter and oil changed (Regular servicing)
In chasing the system with a stethoscope, the only area that I can hear clicking is from the intake manifold. When touching the valve covers and blocks, no noise.
Is it possible for an exhaust manifold leak to present a tick on the intake manifold? I'm assuming I have the roller issue, just want to make sure.
I have a video that I will try to upload featuring the issue. If I can't, I'll happily email it to anyone that can help.
EDIT: No engine codes, constant ticking present through RPM Change, cold/warm engine
