Hi All. I am taking my Jeep tomorrow to the dealership for the third time regarding this noise. The first two times, they couldn't replicate the sound. I manage to place a mic next to the engine and recorded the sound while going up a hill and stopping a few times.

The sound is at 0:13, from 0:28 to 0:44 you can hear it many times

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Almost sounds like knocking from lower octane gas which can cause loss of power and the knocking sound. What jeep and engine?

It's a 2019 JLU 3.6. automatic.

I put 87 gas. But it doesn't matter which gas I use. I have been to different gas stations.

Its doesn't sound exactly like the familiar low octane rattle to me. Seems a bit more like an exhaust leak but recorded sounds can be misleading. Ok so lets assume it actually is a low octane rattle. Change gas brands to say more on the lines of Exxon or Shell. I know for a fact that some gas octane ratings are not as advertised.
