Smile 2008 Z06

My name is Tom and I'am a new member. I have a 2008 Z06 and it has a miss in #1 cylinder. The dealership has performed all of the external checks but it still has the miss and now they think the problem is internal. This is a new car and I'am hoping the problem is not internal. Any info you can give me would be greatly appreciated.

HI there,
There are no internal documents on an LS7 issue.
Compression test and then cylinder leakdown along with a fuel injection test is the course of action.
Allthebest, c4c5

c4c5 Thank you for the info. Those checks were performed with exception of the leak down check.
Thanks again,
Tom

Hi there,
If the compression check was performed, they would KNOW if it was internal or not.
Allthebest, c4c5

Hi c4c5....I just wanted to let you know that I took my car to a certified Corvette dealer and after they checked the car there was no problem found. The dealer reset a po300 code which has not returned. The car runs strong so I feel everything is o.k. Thanks again for your help.....Tom
