My '07 started making the noise. I did the Amsoil fix and it is quiet so far.

Yeah. i have a friend in clearwater with a new '07 Z06 that is getting this sound and I think he has only around 3,500 miles on the car. He is going to the dealer to get it fixed under the warrenty

Hi!! Sandman, I read your writeup on Nimnicht chevrolet last month and don't worry I won't take my car near them. I recommed Vern's shop on Seminole blvd if you are in Pinellas county. He is honest and will only fix what needs to be fixed and his prices are reasonable.

Default Thank You

Thank You for the info on the shop that won't screw us. I sure hope that someone from Nimnichtt reads this. The guy said he has been working on Vette's for 22 years. It certainly didn't show from what my car looked like when I picked it up. They wanted $600.00 to change my ignition Module and coil. I told him I had already troubleshot my ignition system and it was working good. You know that an ignition module and coil costs total $40 bucks.. $540.00 Labor. I am in the wrong business. Thanks again. My parents live in St. Pete so next time I am down there I will chek out your guy. Thank You again bro.

my 01 ZO6 makes noise...the jar of marbles noise. When I stop I stop in gear. At a light I keep it in gear with the clutch in. No rhyme or reason when it starts and stops. I keep the music on for the most part.

Hey Qman, I just had the fluid changed on my 07 because the rear differential was making noise when I made a slow turn to the left. The Chevrolet dealer fixed it in less than a half hour and it's been fine so far. Mark

Default Clutch Chatter

Hi,
I have a 1 month old 2007 vette with clutch chatter. I took it in and the dealer changed the fluid - said there was a bulletin on it - but the problem persists. The dealer acknowledged it but said that all the 2007's were like that. I'm finding that hard to believe. I had a 2003 Z06 prior to this car and never had a problem with the clutch - or anything else for that matter.

Does anyone else out there have chatter - and if so - what did you do about it.

Thanks for any info you can share.

same chatter here........sounds like it is a throw out bearing. It doesn't effect driveability. But it can be annoying.
