C7 rattle
Hello, I own a 2016 z51 3lt and I have noticed a rattle that sounds like it’s in the front end but I can’t tell for sure since it doesn’t do it in park. It rattles when driving at around 1500-1800rpm. The car is stock other than a plug in that eliminates the v4 mode.
I should also mention the car is an automatic and driving in manual doesn’t eliminate the sound either
*edit the car does rattle at idle if the cars rpm is at 1500*

Sway bar can be the source of a rattle. I had to replace both of my rears to stop the clunk.
Just a suggestion for noise.

Check your belt tensioner - I had something similar on my 2014 and that was the cause.
