I need recommendations on a good Corvette servicing dealer in Portland, OR - My Vett was bought on Feb 29th 2016 the day I brought it home I contacted my sales rep about a ticking sound I heard from the engine that I did not hear at the time I test drove the car - I was advised this was the Direct injection so I let it go at that and have been monitoring the sound. (This explanation seemed reasonable due to the unique sound DI makes and the tick was not all that noticeable or loud)

Now at 3,100 miles the ticking is considerably louder and I am now hearing a rubbing sound during acceleration almost like a mild grinding noise (M7) the ticking almost sounds like valve lash; at times I also get a sound of metal pinging around from under the hood almost like a can rattling.

This is a Base Vette (convertible) with M7 no upgrades to the powertrain all stock.

Thanks in advance.

When I lived there, Wilsonville Chev was the main go to place.

Suburban Chev in Sandy was also but I didn't get any satisfaction with them. They are a new parts vendor here though.


Suggest you go to the Pacific Northwest Forum and ask the locals too, things may have changed recently:
