Rough idle
I have a 2007 C6 with Corsa Sport Exhaust, Airaid cold air and a tune. The car just started to have a problem with the idle. Sometimes is just fine and sometimes it idles so rough that I think it may die. Does the LS2 have a fuel filter? If so is it easily changed or do I have to remove the gas tank? Any ideas or information would help.

Rough Idle
Well I pulled the air filter and purchased some CRC MFS cleaner and removed the sensor and cleaned and sprayed. I cleaned the air cleaner and put everything back together and started it up and for the first few seconds I thought for sure I had screwed something up but it cleared up and ran fine. In fact it felt crisper that it had before. Unfortunately it just lasted for a couple of days and the roughness returned. I guess I will have to take it to a shop and see what they can find. Thank you all for your help.

Absolutely nothing. The car as been running just great and I have had zero problems. It has about 68K miles and never had an issue. Even now 85% of the time it runs and idles just fine but then the hicups start.

A forum vendor. I would prefer not to say. I am not a hot rodder and I have no intention of trying to get 600+ horsepower out of my car. I want a smooth comfortable car that provides me with an E ticket ride when I want it to. This shop is more focused on the individual that wants to spend thousands of dollars to make their car go fast. The tune was done 2-3 years ago anyway.
