Well, I just picked up my "new" used SRT-6 three days ago. I have searched the forums using every combination i can think of, and turned no mention of this.

First off the car runs GREAT! I love it. The only thing that seems odd is the amount of valve ticking it makes when idling. I hear it a little bit under initial acceleration as well. I realize these use "Mineral Oil" thin 0W-40, but it just seems to be nosier that I think it should be. It doesn't sound like an individual lifter, as it's consistent out of both valve covers. I've listened to it with my mechanics stethoscope, and i hear the oil sloshing around in there. Just wondering if these car are just clackity at idle. I guess it's possible that the supercharger is a little noisy as well, as I have no experience with them. All my previous performance cars have been turbocharged.

Thanks for any input. I need to take it to the dealer for a AC Fan Switch glitch anyway, just wanted to know if they should check that out as well.
