Why would a Jeep Wrangler make a clicking noise while it’s idling?

I have a 2020 Jeep Wrangler, and lately, it’s been ticking when it’s idling. Some friends of mine also have Jeeps and they say that this is normal? Seems a little odd to me, though—why would a Jeep Wrangler make a clicking noise when it’s idling?

If in doubt, get it checked out! There are a wide variety of reasons why a Jeep Wrangler might make a clicking noise when it’s idling. While some of them can indeed be normal, some of them aren’t, like problems with the oil pressure, the rocker arms, or the exhaust systems.
The good news is that since your Jeep is a 2020 model, it should still be covered under warranty—so make sure to bring it in to a dealership for a diagnostic right away!
