Z06 engine sound
My 2007 Z06 makes a slight knocking sound from the engine during idle or at low speed / light throttle. The dealer says nothing is wrong and this is common with LS7 engines. Appreciate any informed feedback...

Welcome! Hope your noise is just LS engine piston slap. I was hoping to add a C6 Z06 to the stable soon. Happy motoring.
