Gotta be honest with ya... it must be your particular vehicle because I have yet to hear mine make any expansion/contraction popping noises.
I have the same noise, you can notice it once it heats up and especially at drive thru fast food, or after you park the car ,it pops and clicks for 10 plus minutes. I hope its just something that goes away with time, but if not I will be taking to Dodge for them to remedy.

If the temps are from 1/4 to 1/2 on the temp gauge the damn thing clicks/pops every 2 seconds (yes I even timed the damn thing). I don't know why but it's really bothering me alot, I mean how cool is it when you drive up and all anyone can hear is click... click.... click... makes it sound like your car is a cheap piece and about to explode. Is this something dodge or myself can remedy with aftermarket parts? I sure hope so.
You own a Caliber, right?OUWxGuesser said:Gotta be honest with ya... it must be your particular vehicle because I have yet to hear mine make any expansion/contraction popping noises.
I should point out that that this is the newest vehicle I've ever owned (drove it off the Dodge lot with 11 miles on itOrangeRT said:Hey everybody! I responded a while back that ours was clicking as well and quite noticeably.
It went away.
I forgot all about even posting that I had the clicking. We now have several thousand miles on it and it makes a few little clicks when cooling, thats it.
It hopefully will subside in your vehicles soon. Good luck!
I don't know the build date of my Caliber but the asymbly line sequence is 350912am said:who knows... I would be interested in knowing the build dates for the people having the problem and the people not having the problem.
Last 4 digits of the VIN.OUWxGuesser said:How do you find out assembly sequence?
It could very well be more than the last 4 digits. I'm going off what I Googled and found at http://www.vinguard.org/vin.htm So however acurate that is...MrTyke said:Why 4-digits? Why not the last 5-digits, or 6-digits?
