Yep, my vehicle has that tick as well.

I have found it does vary. I just switched from Mopar conventional 5w-30 oil to Pennzoil conventional 5w-30... will see if that has any effect.

Too early to tell at this point.

glad to be of help. from what I have heard (not expierenced) swtiching to a 10w30 oil can reduce this tick slightly. might want to try that if it just bothers you.

the problem is dodge got cheap and didnt put a good enough oil pump.
