[QUOTE="Grabber, post: 16337146, member: 70485"] I'm on various Dodge forums (Challenger, Durango.net, etc) and I've heard very little to no issues about the current gen 5.7. My R/T is a 16 with 26K miles. It sees WOT multiple times a day, pretty much every day. Rock solid. No tick, no issue. Even in Chicago heat, the 5W20 is fine. At one point, I ran Amsoil 5W30 for a while, but, $100 oil changes got old after a few years. Great buddy of mine has a 2013 Charger R/T with the 5.7 and it has well over 100K miles. He beats the ever living **** out of it. The only problems he has had were the front control arms going out. No tick, oil consumption, etc. It just seems like people are implying that every other 5.7 produced no matter the car/SUV/Truck, they hav issues. That really is not the case. Besides, a tick in th engine seems normal to me, since I've owned nearly every gen Mustang since 1999+ and all of them had a "tick" at some point, despite the cars running awesome. Love my second row captains, wouldn't trade them for a bench no matter what. [/QUOTE]
