Just like someone mentioned already...

I have an Airaid and it wasn't sealed right - after I re-sealed and tightened, I got my deep, good sound back.
I mentioned it earlier. I don't know why they're touching the intake. They've got no business messing with it.

regarding air raid intake.engine got disturbed or slightly tilted down to remove and install transmission this is probably what caused your intake tube to pop off.do not feel bad shortly after trans removal/install at dodge dealer my starter fell out and was hangin by the cables(what do you mean you need to reinstall those bolts?)

Yea I figured that's why, and they didn't notice / forgot to fix it...

but F#%! your situation is just a little worse


Mudboss - just check out one of the earlier pages, there are a couple descriptions

so let's say you don't get this TSB done, will this "creaking" sound or "ticking" sound cause any problems later down the road? I JUST had my TSB for the clutch disc performed and went through hell with that one (3 weeks worth of it)....so if it's not gonna be a big deal, I don't even want to let them touch it again.

If you had it you would know. The squeal is very obvious and very annoying.

I have just noticed this ticking noise this past week. I am at almost 6000 miles and it is exactly what you are talking about in this thread. I barley touch the clutch and it stops. You guys are scaring the shit out of me about the dealer working on vehicles now LOL thanks. Anyone live in Oakland County Michigan and like their dealer, please let me know who you use. I bought from Golling, but I have no idea what their service department is like as I change my own oil.
