Good Afternoon, my name is \*\*\*\*\* \*\*\*\*\* ill be helping you, so sorry to hear about the issues here on the Ram. I know how frustrating it can be to deal with strange noises. If the noise stops when you shift into neutral it will be a transmission related issue since when in neutral the transmission is disengaged but the engine keeps running. Since its intermittent and just a noise i would start with checking the fluid level and condition first and inspect for any metal or [clutch](/topics-clutch-dodge/) material that would indicate mechanical failure. All things considered this will be a transmission issue with how it responds to being in neutral.

i suspect a mechanical issue so a computer would not tell you much. they likely just checked for codes and didnt run full diagnostics on the noise, by all the symptoms you have it sounds like a transmission issue to me.
