Just over 1000 miles on my 2013 ZL

I am heading a metal rattling kinda tinny sound after each shift when I accelerate. It simply sounds like something is rubbing or loose and I only hear when I accelerate.

I made an appoinment for service on Monday, but figured perhaps someone has experienced this before or has idea???

Thanks in advance.

proper octane levels ??? 91 to 94. or maybe the cylinder valve chatter which should be unlikely for the LSA.

I only run 93 octane.

I dont think its valve chatter, the noise is really tinny sounding like something it rubbing/hitting during acceleration....

Thank you for your input.

Probably a heat shield under the car has worked its way loose
