Oil change 10/10 has to do with your exhaust actuators sticking
Car is at 7720 miles, second hellcat and never had this issue before. Here’s a video

100% Absolutely sounds like your exhaust valves squeaking! Had the same problem.

Warranty thing also. Life is to short not to enjoy your "could be" modded car waiting on a warranty to expire. Hell my brand new 13 mustang had a blower on it when it was less then 6 months old. Why run 12s when I could be running 10s:p

Unless they screwed up and put your muffler bearing oil in the engine and engine oil in the mufflers. That might do it

Reading how Bull runs the motor dry is terrifying to my well lubricated OCD.

That being said, back from my student pilot days I recall my instructor telling me that if the engine was to fully loose oil pressure that I would have about 15 minutes to get it on the ground before it locked up.

Found a video awhile back that shows the 15 minute rule to be about right.

...runs the motor dry...

That makes it sound so bad...

How about this as an alternative?

...turns the motor over for a few seconds, unloaded, at idle, while whispering sweet nothings into the car's microphone... is so much more accurate...

; )

This thread undermines what little remaining trust/respect I had for dealers and their staff. My conclusion is that dealers are a "business" just like the window installers, hospitals, Walmart and AMZN. The issue is, if you have a problem with AMZN or WM, they will give you your money back!!! The window guy might come back and re-caulk! The hospitals and car dealers will just take your $ and tell you to come back and spend more so they can "look into it". I can diagnose most problems, and fix the easy ones, but the "average" consumer, including all the college educated idiots, are clueless! The world is more upside down than ever, and the people getting screwed the worst.... are voting for CommieLA!!! We are screwed! I'm glad I'm old...
