2015 ZL1 knocking Engine

My brand new 2015 Camaro ZL1 w/ only 1800 miles and 100% stock has been knocking since day one. Bought new from Fremont Chevrolet 2 weeks ago -- hopefully they sort it out for me :(
Knock detection was done with a DashLogic plugged into the OBD2 port.
EDIT: I'm fixed! (May 2015 @ 2000 miles)
PROBLEM: The knock sensor was doing its job, the problem was California Gas is 91 octane but this car is tuned for 93 octane. When I took it to the dealership, they called out an engineer and they did a "gas test" and the engineer said "This is 91 octane gas! This car requires 93 octane." He decided it was user fault and recommended against warranty claims. I'm assuming he wasn't from California and didn't realize we only get 91 here. After he left, the service manager was obviously confused like I was, but covered his ass and said that the engineer told them this was normal and everything was fine. WTF? That's not what I heard. The service manager said sorry there's nothing we can do (I did some yelling). Neither GM nor the Chevy dealership were willing adjust my car for 91 octane. The car manual says 91 but it doesn't say anything about whether 5-10 degrees of knock retard is acceptable or not (it's not but that's not for me to decide). So unless I want to take legal action, I'm S.O.L.
SOLUTION: Knowing it was a tuning problem and GM and the Dealership would not help me, I embraced the problem, bought some mods, went to a custom tuner asked for a super safe tune for 91 octane and now I'm problem free and couldn't be happier with the car.
Dec 27, 2015 -- I'm at 6500 miles and problem free. Mods: Full ARH Header-back exhaust, HF Cats, Plugs, Weight Reduction. On 91 octane pump gas, I'm about 650bhp and 3940lbs (give or take) which is less than my 2013 Shelby GT500 weight when I added the Griggs Racing suspension to it -- just sayin.

2015 ZL1 owner hear as well, sorry to hear this issue has happened to you. When buying a nice new car this shouldn't happen. I really hope the dealer has fixed this for you. However you say its 100% stock but you must being using some software showing the engine kock. I don't have that option anywhere on my ZL1.

[@aarontharris]

+Ben Battle It's all in the video description. The car is 100% stock. I used a DashLogic device which plugs into the OBD2 port. It is non-invasive, it doesn't touch the software or anything, it only reads the codes coming from the computer.

[@tampatuning]

there's nothing to fix. Its acting normal for a stock tune

[@georgeposeidon9280]

the ZL1 2014 2015 is a killer car very fast car

[@nwigchert10]

I'm not tech-smart enough to know what im listening for but i hope they get that fixed ASAP. Had mine 2 years and she still running strong.

[@tampatuning]

If your on the factory calibration, your most likely does the same thing. Its within the normal limits for the stock calibration to reduce timing about that much. It also probably rich in the mid 10 AFR at WOT

[@justinkarim5976]

How do you access a knock sensor on the dash? I don't see that option anywhere.

[@aarontharris]

you need a scan tool. I used dash logic but I didn't like the tool for the price. HPTuners is a better tool.

[@justinkarim5976]

+Aaron Harris ah thank you

[@QSpeedRacer]

did you try race gas to see if it went away? more power lol

[@aarontharris]

I did try race gas and the problem did go away but not very practical ;)

[@QSpeedRacer]

+Aaron Harris lol.. what was causing it?

[@aarontharris]

+Greg Quillen it's fixed now, it's all in the description. the car stock from the factory is not tuned for CA 91 octane. my solution was to mod the car and get it tuned ;)

[@QSpeedRacer]

+Aaron Harris figured that.. be surprised how many cars tuned for higher octane. my srt4 made more power when i put in higher octane than 93 lol.. i usually mod all my cars and add meth inj.. well now im on an E85 kick. added flex fuel to my camaro and running E85 ..

these new performance cars seem to not run right on 91, no matter what the manufacturers or the techs say. I hate dealing with warranties on vehicles, they never want to check your vehicle out, and they want to sidestep any potential warranty work whether you voided the warranty or not. people claim the reason why no 93 is sold out here in the west is due to the elevation difference, which is BS, because why would California not sell 93 almost any where? not all of California is mountainous and high elevation, but then they also claim it has something to do with emissions standards in California, or maybe this autoweek.com/article/car-news/no-more-92-premium-octane-rating-drops-california I wish they would calibrate the vehicles strictly for 91 octane knowing that 91 is all some people can find.

[@aarontharris]

car stuff Ecoboost 2.3 Mustang, etc. It's definitely 91 in CA for emissions reasons. Car MFG cater to 93 bcuz it's the majority and pulls better numbers. Tuning for 91 is an afterthought. Get a professional tune and your car will be awesome.
