While it isn't necessarily driver error, riding it out is. That's what usually causes damage. It can also be fixed with properly damped shocks/stiffer springs.
The codes were never released, but HPTuners has the ability to tune Gen 4 and 5 Vipers. I've been tuning mine since last summer.
Unrelated: Dodge released the Gen 5 code to Arrow, and they now offer a plug and play PCM for the Gen 5 crowd (similar to the Mopar PCM for the Gen 4 guys).

Batteries can be deep cycle, but entire cars? Not so much...
Even if the OEM battery was deep cycle (and I don't think it is), that wouldn't mean that it would maintain its charge for a longer period of time...it would just mean that you wouldn't toast the battery if you drained the crap...
Those that try this to try and get around a voided warranty will quickly find out that the OEMs have implemented a counter of sorts in the PCMs to determine just how many times a PCM has been written to. If it shows that it has been written to more times than can be backed up with valid service...
Man...this section of the forum is pretty dead. Do people not realize that HPTuners now has a solution for 2008-2010 Viper guys, or do you just not care?

It did eliminate the fast flashing, but...
That's not quite how it works...any gear where the output turns faster than the input is an overdriven gear, so anything less than 1:1 (which is 4th gear in all Vipers, 1st through 5th Gen) is considered an overdrive. The standard 5th/6th ratios for the T-56 and TR-6060 through 2009 were...
Transmission fluid does not take a friction modifier, but the differential fluid does. I don't think it would hurt to add more, but if it were me, I'd have it drained and refilled properly by someone that could remember whether or not they added the stuff.
