I changed mine at 500 miles but never heard the tick. Was the oil level proper prior to you change?

i dont know i never checked the oil levels before .i had the tic for 5 seconds at start up ,then just what i though weas normal hemi noise, after oil change noticbly quiet. maybe it was low .

If Jeep was still warm after oil change the tic would not be there
 
true , but it was even quiet at idle ,which it uslly sounds a bit like a type writer
could be the dastardly expired oil that was all the rage here a few weeks ago 🤣

really just could have been low or maybe that particular filter was not flowing as well vs the new one.

I got the Hemi valve lifter tick once after not waiting long enough after a cold start (opened the hood after remote starting it)

I do get the Hemi exhaust chirp/tick though and it varies with how hot it is out and how hot the exhaust/motor is.

Do recall what filter was on it? we have 3 filters that 'fit' a smaller one-339, larger one-899 and the white SRT one-041

from my understanding the 899 and 041 are pretty much the same volume but the white one has a different design optimized for higher flow.

Well known issue, fluids not filled correctly from the factory.
 
I thought that was just the diffs , oil is part of that that
Mine was close but not full. I've seen low levels noted on diffs, TC's, transmissions, etc. I would check everything.

I concur it’s an exhaust chirp
 
so after sitting overnight ,no tic on startup ,or idle at all .oil filter has a slight drip ,retighten with filter wrench.its hard to tighten by hand as its so big ,unless u have, seinfeld man hands
