Just changed oil...crickets got but new pulley noise

Did anyone notice a pulley noise/shake after they changed the oil? I put in 5.8 quarts and the dipstick reads fine. The engine sounds better but still idles around 600 RPM. I'm glad the chirping is gone though

Also, the oil that drained out looks really really dark. I'm glad I changed it. I have 2400 miles on the clock.

It's short lived. My chirping went away for a couple hundred miles. Then came back.

Sounds like a coinky-dink. Changing the oil wouldn't affect the crickets noise nor the pulley.

I changed the oil twice (at 1k and 3k), and I have no crickets or pully noise. Just the normal DI tapping. I am almost hitting 5k miles.
