Seriously? You hear the low frequency knock right? Ignore the ticking engine /valve train noise...

Yup - seriously. I'd call it the hemi chug more than I would call it a knock though.

Hey OP, I`d driv`r till she blows, then they`ll have to replace it...!
I would still get to another stealership and get a 2nd opinion.
Mine is a 2010 QC 4x4 sport hemi, quiet as a church mouse.... no typical hemi tick, no knock. (50,000 miles on it)
