I hear loud enough “clunk” right after start up when engine is warm, or after about 3 min when cold. Happens only once per start up. It bothers me a lot, especially since the car is new. Is this normal by any chance? I’m taking it to my dealership in 2 days and want to be prepared if they say “it’s normal”. It comes from this PCV (at least that’s what I think it is). Please, help

Not normal but hopefully the dealer will find something? Good luck with that!

My '20 is fairly loud, but I don't think I've ever heard it clunk before. More like a pneumatic hissing pop. Lasts for about 1/10 of a second. On the plus side, it's a cheap easy do-it-yourself fix if you want to swap it out. Might take 5 min.

My new 21 WBRE does it as well. Usually a few min into pulling out of my subdivision. I hear a loud clunk.

well, took it to my dealership. Of course first thing they said it’s normal lol. I don’t think so. But they said to be safe they went ahead and ordered new assembly (valve just doesnt come by itself). Gonna be 7-10 days. I’ll post if it fixes the problem.

Please do! The sound does not bother me much. However, if it solves your issue, I will definitely get it done.

Did this fix the clunk?

This sounds like the same thing I’ve started hearing on my 21 Charger HCRE. Did you figure out a fix?

I have a 2020 hellcat and I'm starting to think that's the issue with my car. There's a rattle coming from that area one time after vehicle warms up. It only happens once. Was wondering if changing this out solved your problem. Mine has been doing it since I brought it home from the dealership.I just hate going to dealership for anything if don't have to.

I just hate when people posts like this and then don't give you the conclusion and solution! It makes reading this a waste of time.

Ya exactly lol
