The clutch noise, it turns out, is a common thing in our cars and they call it normal. I call it bad engineering but they refuse to do anything about it since many 5th gen Camaros have it. If I can't get GM to fix it, I will put the car for sale. I can't drive with noise like that, it would drive nuts.

For whomever is going to the show, please upload pics.
Sounds like a warranty repair to me.
I still get an odour of oil every once in a while.....hmmmm is this an LS7 thing only ??
Might have to look into this too.
