Mine has a slight shake too at idle and is typical for these engines. I think mine idles around 650 when up to operating temperature.

The cold idle on our C7 Z51 is noticeably noisier and rougher than on our 2009 LS3.
But, I'm not worrying about it.

Slight shake is normal.

My '18, with 425 miles, is a constant 650 at idle, whether in Park or Drive with brake on. Doesn't vary at all.
