A couple weeks ago my Dad and I were showing my car to some family members who came to visit. Anyway, after my dad pulled the car out of the garage and popped the hood open he left it running while we showed them the car and talked. After a few minutes we noticed an irregular ticking sound coming from the engine. The car had been idling maybe 5 mintutes or so. My dad and I just figured it was because it was idling for so long and had low oil pressure because it was at idle. The noise stopped when it was revved. We didnt think anything more of it because the car runs great.
The car currently has Amsoil 5w30 and an Amsoild SDF filter.
I saw a post on srtforums the other day about this same issue and that is what prompted me to post here. Heres a link to the post...

Heres a link to a video of an srt4 doing the same thing at idle. Mine wasnt doing it as much as this car and it stopped when revved.

Is this something that needs to be worried about??
