It’s crazy how a 2011 car is 10 years old ... I know it’s basic math but that seems like not that long ago
Time flies, man. I understand
The last 5 years felt like they didn't even happen tbh.
it was probably built in 2009, then it would be 12
Reminds me the other day I was watching pawn stars and looking at the background many cars don’t look that aged and these are new cars of 17 years ago.
Wait until you get older. 5 years ago will feel like last month.
Car wizard should make a wizard alliance for all 50 states so everyone can get an honest mechanic to work on their cars

The fix to the hemi tick is to remove the muffler.
There’s no problem if you can’t hear it lol
A loud stereo works well also for when you're idling at the lights. Pro tips for the people.
What did you say?
That's some funny S!!!

Customer travels 300 KM to get the work done properly by the master wizard ... THAT is showing this guys competence!
wizzard is the norm of expectations when you pay money. just shows what a bunch of crooks most car repairmen are.
Wizard: “You need a vape pen if you drive a Charger”
Me: *Laughs in Subaru*
@Leo Coffy I highly doubt that :D
Naa, you need a vape installed in the dash to quilify.
@R M some yes but not all
@R M Stop driving the Subie like a race car. It is a four wheel drive beast, but it is NOT a speed demon.
@Leo Coffy Very good. You have me chuckling.
"You got a Hemi?"
Tick...tick...tick...tick...
"Yup!"
Hemi Tick: Beware the sound of a new cam being ground. This one will be round, and your billfold's heart will pound. Repair bills will abound as the Wizard is Bahama bound.

@@lukesylvester2022 amen
its got 200k, its 12 years old.. its doing just fine

Heh, I keep telling my wife that behind every great man is a woman rolling her eyes at him lol.
Snitches get stitches is What I tell my ol ball n chain
Just a general comment. I’d just like to thank you for, if not reaffirming, at least keeping alive, my faith that somewhere out there are genuinely good, competent, knowledgeable, skillful and, in this industry at least, honest, mechanics out there. Keep up the good work, it’s a joy and pleasure to watch.
it truly is a rarity these days, keep it up wizard!
600/700 bucks for a oil pressure sensor replacement? what are you talking about? that should be 1 hour labor for diagnosis/ replacement plus sensor cost hmm..175 ..200 bucks tops.
What are you smoking? or were you dropped on your head as a child.....edit....what? a front suspension issue was addressed sway bar bushings replaced...starter issue addressed starter button replaced ..ya I eat my words and bow to the almighty wizard he was very fair with his price...
@@Mikegastaldo: I guess you missed the sway bar bushings replacement?
@@Mikegastaldo Don't forget he also had to replace the sway bar bushings and replace the push button for the starter too. I imagine the labor for getting behind the dash to fix the push button wasn't cheap. Did you even watch the entire video (WITHOUT SKIPPING ANYTHING!) before making a comment?
Most mechanics are honest
There's a difference between performance exhausts and no exhausts! People don't understand the true difference. Thanks for the content
Pineapple launchers are not performance exhausts. More like "repro bathtub fart" generators. And so, laws will be passed for excessive noise pollution (as prop plane flies overhead).
Annoyance is in the ear of the begrudger.
@@theundergroundlairofthesqu9261 you hit top 20 in the dumbest person to be alive
Indeed. I had a guy trying to argue with me on FB that performance exhausts are overpriced/a waste of money - and that you can just do mid muffler delete/remove resonators.
I mean sure you can do that, but a high quality aftermarket exhaust is gonna sound better no matter what and it's made out of much higher quality material. People are so stupid lol
Indeed. As I told a well known modern Mopar youtuber.... there's good loud and bad loud.
Same principle with some of these amateurs out here with their loud stereo systems and the obscene amount of distortion, crackling and static coming from their speakers.
What do you mean, big bills isn't the way to keep customers coming back, I mean Hoovie always comes back. Lol
Thanks wizard
The dumbest automotive channel in all of RUclips.
Hoovie is a masochist
That's because Hoovie lived close to the wizard and the wizard does great work.
Friends get preferential rates coz you know they are morally obliged to come to you. No need to try hard. Pro tip.
Hoovie also buys a LOT of garbage most of us would run away from.

Wow that engine could use a bath!
Thought so as well. It looks as if it had been driven through a desert storm.
The whole car could lmao those headlights too 🤢
@@sokthearrith it looks dusty af someone needs detail it
Looks awfully dusty. Would change the air and cabin filters more often than recommended.
It came from Oklahoma so calm down u clean freaks. As a matter of fact, I ain't washing my car for a long time now
Work on the police version of this all the time. The hemi tick turns into a small chirp which is a lifter getting stuck and the end result is a camshaft being eaten. Seen this at as low as 44,000 miles. Extended idling will cause this due to not enough oil flow to the cam. The one in the video has not had this due to it not idling long periods of time. Keep in mind this has its own version of afm just like gm. Great video tho wizard
I would imagine using a good oil with frequent oil changes would help
@@Tempsho we use 5w20 synthetic oil
I waited the whole video hoping you'd start it so we can hear the infamous tick. Then it never came :(
Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick, There you go 😂😂😂
Same here. How can you title the video about the hemi tick and not start the engine
I love this body style of Chargers. I like the front end styling more than the new body style hellcat chargers.
Especially the SRT front bumper looks better in my opinion.
What I appreciate even more than your considerable knowledge and experience is your honesty. That's the number one thing I look for in mechanics and repairmen, and physicians. Kudos!
The entire platform is a retired Mercedes platform. In 2011 Chrysler updated the control arms with biggerstrut arms and ball joints. When you inspect the drive shaft flex joint look for cracking in the rubber. The transmission is a Nag 1 the cup plugs leak all the time. I've worked for Chrysler since 93 and I don't know what you mean by a normal Hemi tick. I wish could hear the exact noise your referencing. The injectors tick very loud even more so starting 2011.they put noise insulation over the rails to help. The lifter rollers wear out and wipe out the cam lobes. That happens because they moved the cam higher in the block for better valve train geometry. Now the cam does not get constantly bathed in as much oil and there is no oil gally feed to the lifter bores for lubrication. It gets whatever washes over the lifters. If you hear a lifter tick that means the lifter roller is worn and the cam is getting scored. If you have a misfire and you want to determine if it's a bad cam. Do 4 or 5 Accelerations to the redline. Then the engine will start to misfire bad
Let it idle and it will smooth out. When the ramp on the cam lobe is damaged it causes the lifter to collapse on hard acceleration. Even if you don't hear a tick it can still be a bad cam.
i try to never let my hemi idle for very long due to this exact reason, i always try to keep the oil pressure around 50-60 lbs, its only got 10k miles on it now so wish me luck! thanks for going into detail on this subject.
I heard the lifter tick/cam problem really isn't a problem unless you let the car idle all the time. Sucks if you are a police force and have a whole fleet of Hemi Chargers idling for 10 hours a day.
@@AaronSmith-kr5yf A lot of fleets switched over to V6 models because of cam problems with the Hemi
@@3pAcsJs You'll be ok it's a bullet proof engine otherwise. The best thing you can do is change your oil every 3k and don't listen to the people who say if you use synthetic you can go 5k or 6k. It's still every 3k regardless of the oil.
I’m not a mechanic but I work a lot around cars and I always hear a tick in a dodge v8. Doesn’t matter if it has 1000 miles or 100000 miles they all tick and during a cold start they all have a piston slap noise.
You remind me so much of the mechanic I have used for over 25 yrs. I am fortunate to also consider him a friend and never hesitate to refer him to others. Always be a man of your word and the business will always come. Great job.
I had a 2010 charger with the v6 I bought from my dads work (old company car) with 220k on it. I sold it with 266k and it was still rock solid. The guy I sold it to still has it and has about 300k on it now. Love these cars
WOW!!
I'm driving a friend's 08 daytona with the hemi while I'm waiting for my Saab's parts to ship and the thing is running great at 206k miles. I thought these engines weren't reliable. Owner has had it since new, said the only engine issue has been overheating once in a while. Never misfires, or runs rough. Great engine, but even with cylinder deactivation I'm getting 17.Xmpg on mostly rural roads
These cars were built to last !
The recycled E-class chassis (LH) was one of the few good things to come out of the DaimlerChrysler merger. The trans is an NAG 1 (Neu Automatik Getrieb) 5-speed... pretty reliable. This major restyle (LD) version of the platform included an upgrade to rack and pinion steering... the earlier models had sloppy feeling recirc ball from MB. The early LD vintage looks much better than the earlier years too, while the most recent have an overdone, look-at-me apperance (IMHO). The HEMI tic gets ample attention on RUclips. Some think it is an early warning of cam lobe wear from inadequate lube flow to the cam and lifter valley... some think it is an early warning of dreaded dropped valve seat failure. Both camps think cylinder deactivation in more recent model years increases the likelyhood either expensive failure. At nearly 200K, that Charger looks damn good.
It's amazing that your a genuine daily mechanic and some how find the time to still produce daily videos that are very informative
Always preferred the look of these Chargers over the later ones, very cool seeing you giving one of these a once over!
I dunno, I like the thinner grille on the new ones. And this is coming from someone who owns one of this body style.
When I first moved to Canadian Texas and went to register my truck, they gave me a complementary sawzall to cut my exhaust off.
What's Canadian Texas?
@@tehgzizlauw1787 Alberta
There is a town in the Texas panhandle named Canadian.
Hahaha Canadian Texas. Although it’s more like Canadian Colorado, Montana, Utah, and Texas all at once. So true though
Those are covers on the calipers.
Thanks for being a good honest guy/mechanic! Love the vids and the collab with Hoovie! Probably see you soon with my cars when they need something.
I worked at the Hemi Engine Plant in Ramos Arizpe, Coahuila, Mexico 20 years ago
I love Mrs Wizard's comments in the background.
Huge thanks for the quick explanation of the Hemi tick I have been scratching my head to troubleshoot it. Thanks more annoying than anything
Love these style of videos... So relaxing and entertaining and informative!
Appreciate your logical and honest approach to running your business. No wonder everyone in Kansas has a 1/2 mile driveway, you need it to get some peace and quite!

I always first look for fog lights .. I’ve never seen a cop car with fog lights
@@tommysk8r94 me too ha, some of the new suvs have them so you gotta watch
@@tommysk8r94 U know what?! I do too and I look for the rear wing spoiler.
@@3pAcsJs facts because the Dekalb County, GA Police Dept. have Tahoes and Durangos with fog lights. But the Chargers, I havent really seen any with fogs.
Our 2012 Charger R/T is very similar to this one, except for it being black with leather interior.
I'm a proponent of the late-model Chrysler hemis - I've owned three, had others for company trucks
and all of them have been rock-solid and dependable.
We still own my '04 Ram 4x4 hemi that I bought new; it's pushing 200k miles as well and has been
silly reliable and solid. We've also owned an '06 Charger R/T, which was traded in on the 2012 when
it was new. They're a lot of fun for the money, very comfortable and the aftermarket is strong, too.
Yes, that oil pressure switch is a common replacement item on them; I just replaced the one on
the 2012 after the dreaded "99psi" issue and don't let Wizard fool you - that mother is a bear to
get to, especially if you have large man-hands like me.
You wind up having to get under the car and temporarily removing the alternator to access it...
As for the "tick", I've only witnessed it in my Ram and only when it's cold; it dissipates fairly quickly
once it's been running a minute. Relax about the tick, people - as Wizard says, it's not a big deal.
I keep the oil changed in all our hemi vehicles and I only use Mobil1 in them, along with good
Hastings filters. I'd rather spend the money on oil changes now than engine rebuilds later.
Oh, and even the "base" hemi 5.7 (370hp) is a quick animal, too - our 2012 ran a 13.94 stock when
new; I took it down the track just for the fun of it and it surprised me a little. Not bad for a 4000+
pound full dresser car - and on long trips, the car is in the high 20's on fuel economy, too.
I'm pleased Wizard agrees with me on these - they're good engines, always have been.

Thanks for another great video, Wizard. The way you conduct business, that of treating your customers right so that they stay your customers, is how I treat my customers. It is the right way to do business.
This is crazy and I really appreciate it. I've got a 70K '05 Hemi Magnum, and it's got both the tick, which I was sure was an exhaust manifold leak but I could never find; and it periodically throws a wrong oil weight code. Guess it's time for sensors!
Chargers, Challengers and 300s are Germericans built in Canada... weird! But I love it!!! Lol
By the way, the HEMI is builded in Mexico
@FabarmH368 I forgot about those...🤦♂️
@@MrElpincheaca Thanks for the info! I didnt know that. I thought the Hemi engines where built in Toledo. 🙄
I'd rather buy a North American made car, than one that gets imported from China by an "American" brand (variety of reasons, including less of an environmental impact when you think about it)
@@SouthsideKidd550 MrE is correct according to Wikipedia.👍
I love the car wizard for his honesty,humbleness, and his realness.
(I know those are not words but if you relate you understand)
I really like how you do this post examination on random vehicles that were serviced everyday. Very cool
So glad the car wizards channel has grown this much keep up the good work man
This Chrysler is getting near Toyota build quality with 200 K miles and no oil leaks. Great video Wizard.
It's basically a mercedes
@@blueryxfalls7949 engine is most certainly not however and is the reason there are no oil leaks. Also the 13 pin connector on the mercedes NAG trans are notorious for leaks because the silly germans used the wrong O-ring material for the trans fluid they were using. If you've ever worked on a mercedes you would know its nothing to brag about.
i dont know why but this was my favorite charger gen it looks so muscular and sharp damn!
Same here, also the last generation with the R/T AWD package, I've been drooling over some of those on craigslist recently.
@@averyw.3939 I have 2014 Charger RT AWD and I love it
Yeah I don't know how people like the new ones
Thanks, Wizard, I was thinking muffler question the other day, I used to get pulled over when my exhaust was that loud. Who didn't own a car: typically rusted out crossover pipe, rusted exhausted pipe use a pop can and a couple of clamps, only a couple times was it a muffler problem - typically from a backfire.
Great video! I feel these cars get underrated by people. I have one and I have a family member with a 300 which has a ton of miles. They have been very reliable and they get decent highway MPG. In town mileage is not so great but for a big motor full size car it’s good. This car should get more love then it does.
Newton had a HUGE car show today (May 1st), where you out there? Drove by Omega, but they don't like gawkers so didn't stop in.
200 000 miles and looks fantastic underneath. I am stunned 👍🏻
200,000 miles on a Chrysler product is surprisingly shocking to me. Maybe Chrysler is only good at making V8s.
The 5.7 engine is good 👍
It’s from Oklahoma not Nebraska ;) up north we have the infamous rust monster eating vehicles less than 5 years old. if you don’t get the salt flushed off at a car wash between ice and snow storms it happens fast
@@VQ.Family surprisingly there’s a hellcat out there with 140000 miles. that’s surprisingly a lot for chrysler
Yeah, I didn't even see oil seepage anywhere. Maybe he meant to say 96K instead of 196K. This car doesn't look like it has 196K on it.
Just found your channel and I love it keep em coming brother
I like the way the Wizard speaks.
Good talking points in this industry.
my dad's 2007 ram hemi had the "hemi tick" started at about 130,000 miles and he sold the truck with 280,000 still running fine
The LX platform rides very smoothly down the highway. You can mix martinis while cruising at 100 mph. Very comfortable on long road trips.
FInished my daily 09 charger i bought with a blown motor, going from a 08 ram 2500 to it has been rather nice
They are indeed really comfy. Family and friends have had quite a few Hemi LX Plattform cars and I’ve loved them. My friends 15’ FBO 5.7 is a monster for sure.
Thanks for the 'Hemi Tick' info. I've oven 5,7L in four of the Grand Cherokees I've owned and always noticed the 'tick.
I had a 2001 GMC Sierra with the 5.3 v8 that had the famous piston slap. It had it until the second transmission locked up at 408,000 miles. Just kept it maintained and it kept running.
It would have been nice to clean off the 1/4 inch of soil before working on that engine
At least he cut the grass before he slammed the hood in OK
Whenever he says let’s put it on a lift I’ll be clapping my hands
Nothing wrong with being autistic 🙂 proud of you!
I'm hooked on the "lift" music.
I miss seeing the Wizard all fat in slow motion putting the car up
Now all we see is a close up of the car
Honest Mechanics are hard to find. Glad you’re one of them. 63B/91X here.
another awesome informative show about popular cars that most of us drive and can afford to repair unlike those exotic cars very few can afford. thanks for your honesty
"Not a lot of pomp and circumstance" - a nice turn of phrase!
Circumcised**
They located the cam too high up in the block. The cam gets starved of oil at idle because the crank doesn't splash oil up that high.
Funny enough, if you are always pushing high rpms it means those parts get properly oiled and no hemi tick can form.
Idle her too long and you got a tick though so its really a catch 22
What's the solution then ? Use the best synthetic oil and drive it easy!
They just don't like to be idled too long, for example like police do. Great for cruising on the highway.
Honest mechanics are worth their weight in gold... where ever you are in the world... Good on ya mate
This is relaxing. Thanks for a great channel! I’ve had two of these lx cars. A 13 300s with a 5.7 and a 18 charger scat pack. Both are great cars!

I’ve been through Kanas a few times. Spent the night one week at a hotel in Colby KS while traveling to Colorado.

That’s because there a Mercedes underneath it
I’ve had my 14’ Hemi Charger for about 4 years and it’s been a phenomenal car. It’s also close to 200k and aside from some suspension that just started creaking, it’s been mechanically perfect.
Cool car. I have a 2014 SRT8 Charger with 25K miles.
2014 RT with 76k
Cool. I have a 14' Charger R/T Myself, and other than front facing lower control arm replacement, runs like a top. Got 100,000 miles now, and I take meticulas care of it. It had 59,000 miles when I bought it. I always use Mobil 1 5w 20, and change it every 5,000 miles.
My 1988 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible had 2.2L inline 4. The motor really was not that bad. We put near 300K on it. The sound was not really annoying, but made me take pause every once in a while. That was cam slap. You could hear the OHC slapping away at idle.
I love my 2017 Ram! It’s got that loose manifold bolt problem, Hemi tick, and I feel a clunk in the rear end coming to or leaving from a stop. Other than the bump everything else I can live with. The bumps harsh sometimes. Brought it in and they kept saying it was the way I was driving or they’d say they’d plug in a scanner and reset the transmission. They eventually found a broken gear in the rear. All was well for a few months, but it’s come back again. I guess there’s slack and the near gear broke. I have a nice bumper to bumper warranty so if my rear end explodes one day idc.
I quit vaping (on day 4) and now everyone's talking about vaping.

Keep at it boss
Everyone stopped when they founded out it destroys your lungs lol 😆
keep going man, you're better without it. nic is a hard addiction to break but keep going and keep yourself happy and distracted as much as you can, it'll make it easy on you.
It’s a good thing you quit vaping it will ruin your lungs and do irreparable damage. Vaping is no joke.

Hi, great video, can you make a video explaining what are the benefits of removing your muffler and cats , what do you gain by doing that
Less restriction which equal more power. It doesn't actually add that much though.

Hey @Car Wizard, I don't have a hemi powered vehicle. I do have a 2005 GMC Canyon, with 3.5L five cylinder engine. I notice it has a slight tick when running, more noticed after warmed up. You mentioned it as normal, part of the valve train on the hemi. Would you or anybody you know have experience with my vehicle's engine, and know if that is normal to have a slight tick on it, too?

A few years ago I started vaping as a way to quit smoking. It worked, but now I own an 06 charger.
Shout out to Newton!! Lol I’m from Wichita but moved to North Dakota 9 years ago. Grew up with my grandparents taking me up to the strip mall there to get away on weekends or fishing at Harvey county lake. Boy I miss home!! Subscribed

I'm not a sedan guy and also not a dodge guy but for some reason I find this car to look sinister and I love it .... if I was able to come across the right spec for the right price I'd like one....
Better as a 2 door!
@@user-hc9qv9yb9m 2 door cars suck, rather have the 4-door version. (station, even better.)
@@user-hc9qv9yb9m Nah, not at all. I know you're referring to the old classic models, but still. Dodge made a smart move by making it 4-door to appeal to a wider audience. In the case of the Hellcat, how can you beat a 4-door sedan with over 700HP that can be used to haul the family around or have fun? You can't. Now if only they would bring back the Magnum and put the Hellcat engine in it. Oh boy.
Find a 2014 SRT8. It’s the last year of this body style.
They especially look sinister with Ohio State Highway Patrol livery on silver with blue strobes on the roof! OSHP has been driving Chargers ever since the venerable Crown Vic was discontinued. Now they are switching to SUVs... Explorers and Tahoes.
That great feeling of watching some one that knows what they are talking about
Got a 2011 rt with 60k on the clock.. Couldn't Love it more!!
