hey guys my car has about 67k miles on her. i just bought her about two months ago and only put 4k on it and ever since i started noticing a lil knocking. dont know if it was the oil or the gas but i put mobil1 and been using 91 octane chevron. any thoughts any ways of getting rid of this?,it doesnt get louder so its not a piston i hope but just at idle,thanks guys

i hate to keep saying this and being negative, but i heard a knocking to in low rpm start ups...like just driving from a light or stop or whatever....my oil psi was kinda low...and now ive got a shot bearing....it could be alot of things and until you find out where exactly its coming from you cant really tell....like i said mine made a little tapping or knocking sound only slightly noticable in low rpms...and its the bearings in the crankshaft....

if its coming from the head, it could be anything from the valves hating bad gass, bad oil psi and the head internals slapping, etc etc

ls1 are notorious for noisy lifters and piston slap/oil consumption dont worry about it, im sure ur fine.

Look guys, it's actually pretty simple. Just pop off the valvle covers and throw in some quick-crete. That should take care of your noise issue.
