Love this! Sounds like they did a great job of making the process as easy as possible. Mind if I ask about how long the process was for you until you got your vehicle back?I had the tick starting around 2000 rpms at 4300 miles.brought it in they said the oil filter was full of metal shaveings.replaced motor and gave me 60,000 mile max care warrenty for free.10k miles on replacement motor and it runs great!
They just crated the bad motor up and sent it back to Jeep for diagnosis
The motor came in within 2 weeks.small dealership only one tech he went out with covid day after motor came in.came back found out they needed a special lift bar to take old motor out that took 1 week to get here.it took 1 month to change motor and 2 days of them driveing and double checking the work.the old motor ran fine just a ticking noise but this new motor feels alot looser and quicker to rev up.crysler sent me a paper in the mail 2 weeks after i got it back for the new warrenty.hope it goes just as well for you but maybe a little quicker.Love this!

That sounds like a rod knock, not a valvetrain tick.Yea this is what mine sounded like...
if anything it might help, if getting a new engine, I'm sure it wont come from the factory with 40K miles on it !Why would you lose any equity? This has zero effect on your resale value. As long as it's fixed, no one will know or care. My compass got a new engine at like 40k. When we traded it in, to a Chrysler/Jeep dealer, no one asked or cared. Had a Subaru with a new engine once too. Same thing. No one cares come trade in time.
You ever figure this out? My 6speed has been making exact same sound, usually during light throttle/3-4k rpm while pulling a hill - happened in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. Outside temps and engine temp have no impact, if I accelerate it gets louder, deceleration makes it quieter, downshifting to higher rpm eliminates it. It’s infrequent, typically can’t reproduce it at will - only thing that has *seemed* to lessen the frequency is higher grade gas (premium over low or mid grade - thank god I live in California where gas is cheap……).Did it sound like this?
Any repairs will show up in Carfax and can have a negative effect of the vehicles' value.Why would you lose any equity? This has zero effect on your resale value.

1) No it doesn't. I get carfax notifications when something gets reported, and I can say with certainty that some dealerships and service centers report it to Carfax, some don't. I get an instantaneous email and text at the ones who do. Now, I also have the option on the Carfax app or website to enter my own maintenance records, and utilize that as well. But otherwise, at the closest dealership, nothing goes in. I have to do it myself. The one a little further away: every single oil change goes on. The local 4x4 shop replaced balljoints on my wife's JK. That went on instantly. The local jeep dealership does warranty repairs... Nothing.Any repairs will show up in Carfax and can have a negative effect of the vehicles' value.
