Default Just purchased 11 cts-v

I just picked up a 11 CTS-V with 7000 miles on her! Beautiful car..... one thing i have noticed is a slight knocking sound when I shut the car off... I have researched and said this is normal? Any input guys? .... Also what exhaust sounds the best on these v2s. I had a corsa exhaust on my v1. Thanks guys!

slight knock is probably "dieseling" that you are hearing. As far as exhaust, search some exhaust on youtube, that should help. I personally like Stainless Works the best on V2's.

Pics?

If it has not had this performed then take it in for a new supercharger. Just had mine done.
