I have an 09 Auto with 51k miles on it. About one month ago I noticed a ratcheting/clicking noise coming from the front end upon acceleration. The noise at first would only be heard in the mornings until the water temperature gauge would begin to move. Now the ratcheting/clicking noise has progressively gotten worse. It now occurs anytime the jeep has been sitting for more than an hour and regardless of the water temperature. This past weekend while on a trail I had the windows down and could quietly hear the noise even though I had been running the jeep for several hours. I took it in to the dealer and they said I had a cracked drivers side manifold which they replaced under warranty. This did not fix the issue. I already checked my driveshafts for play and both are fine. I should also note that the noise only occurs when the transmission is in drive and under load. I've revved the engine in neutral and no noise occured
