It really sounds like an engine low on oil (when you can hear the lifters clatter). I think that might be a better description of the sound.
BTW, the sound does seem to have quiet down a tiny bit.
Buying the Auto-RX would be a waste of money for this problem. Your statemants sound like you are decribing a different noise than the other motors have. The lifters might need some more preload but the GM Dealers should be more ready to help in my opinion.
What a crummy Company in my opinion ! They sell expensive cars with motor problems yet will not make things right from what I have read .
Consumers will become wise of this. The residual value will probably be low on LS-1 powered cars.The EPA should get involved as well because they are gross polluters ! How about the Consumer Protection Agency ??????
LS-1 owners unite!
Why did the post text turn out that way?
