Question Weird sound as soon i start my new 2019 Charger SXT-A

Hello Gentlemen,

First of all, i am glad that i bought this amazing car - Joined the club
Thanks for this amazing forum btw

Please i need your help in knowing whether this is normal sound or not.
I have just bought my Dodge charger SXT-A 2019 [3.6L, 8-speed] and the first second the engine starts I hear a click or hitting sort of a sound, hard to explain,, but it is different than knocking problems ofc.. << I am hearing it in the front-right as I said only once as I start the engine... It is kinda something hits something else as engine ignite or starts.
No sound after that and everything looks beautiful.

So, is this normal guys?

I can record a sound about that if you may need it

Thanks and Appreciated

Sounds like a significant relay of some sort...... If you can make it do it at will, (most of the time....) I would take it back to the dealer, and run it past one of the service writers, see what they have to say.

Thanks for the reply sir,

Update: I went to the Mobar Maintenance Service and they said it is a normal sound for Chargers especially when cold starting ,,, besides there are no problem found in the computer diagnosis.. Ofc i told them about if there are any weird relay but they said nothing wrong... i think it is that,, hopefully nothing is there..

Thanks sir for the help

Best Regards
