Default Rough Idle

My 2015 7 speed with 1500 miles lately the idle seems rough and uneven, any ideas. Use Shell premium.

Mine has idled a "little rough" compared to other cars I have owned from day 1. According to the Stingray Chevrolet Service Manager, this is normal for these cars. Here is a quote from an e-mail I received from him:


"The Corvettes do have a rough idle. Most people have asked the same question, it is not misfiring. If there were to be any misfires, your check engine light would come on alerting us to it."


However, there was a Technical Service Bulletin on this issue for some of the earlier cars that identified the motor mounts as the problem.
