I started hearing this "Chirp" a couple of weeks ago and was curious if anyone has this problem or has had this problem fixed. Its pretty annoying and I hope its nothing serious. Here is a link to a video i just made.

that sounds like a noisy belt to me. try spraying a little belt dressing on the belt and see if it goes away. you could try using a pipe to listen for where the sound is coming from. would be easier to pinpoint the exact location of the sound to find a remedy. when you were under the hood it sounds like you may have a header leak. what type of gaskets dod you use? i have always used copper gaskets by mr.gasket corp. i have never had those leak on me.

I have the same noise on my 2010 Hemi. The dealer, after replacing cat converter, belt, a couple of lifters, and the alternator has given up. Been doing it for 40K Km's so think it's just an annoyance more than anything.

someone mentioned using a pipe to locate the noises

you can do the same thing by using something like a cut off broom handle
hold one end against where you believe the noise to be coming from, put your fore finger & thumb at the other end of the handle & the same fingers just touching your ear
It works just like a stethoscope

sounds like a belt, or the belt tensioner bearing...
