My G6 is at 40,000 miles and there is a oil pan leak and a crankshaft seal leak. The dealership is giving me a very hard time with this. Has anyone else had this issue with their vehicle?

#10 of 14 2007 G6 oil change by concealed Sep 25, 2007 (6:31 pm)
I did an oil change for a friend, she has a 2007 g6 coupe. I put about 4.25 qt of 10w-30 synthetic oil in. Although it says to use 5w-30, it should be ok right? also, how much oil are you suppose to put in? 4.5 qt? Replies to this message: mrn320 (Dec 31, 2007 9:42 pm)

Replying to: concealed (Sep 25, 2007 6:31 pm) I always change my 2005 G6 GT engine oil. With a Fram filter I use 4.5 qts and I always change filter on every oil change. I use Valvoline 5W30 because I prefer the lower viscosity in my climate range. I can't see any problems with 10W30 unless you have extreme cold temperature where flow would be an issue. Mike
#12 of 14 2006 G6 oil-life indicator by sleffert Jan 11, 2008 (10:10 am)
I purchased my 2006 G6 in July 2007. I had my first oil change in late August before I left for a 2500 mile round trip. About three weeks ago and about 6000 miles later my oil indicator finally said it was time for an oil change. I took my car in for the oil change and now, two weeks later (about 300 miles) my oil life is down to 84%. Seems like a huge difference from my first oil change. However, I live in Idaho and the average temperature is 10-28 degrees right now so I am thinking that has something to do with it. I only drive my car around town but 16% oil life used in 300 miles seems a bit extreme to me??? At this rate I will have to get an oil change at 1800 miles. Any input??
#13 of 14 G6 Convertible Oil Consumption by TomHorn Jan 11, 2009 (9:27 am)
My G6 is consumming 1 quart of oil every 2500 miles. I think this is excessive. The dealership says it is normal. Anyone know?
#14 of 14 g6 convertible chrome door sills by a022mil Sep 17, 2009 (9:59 am)
How do you keep these door sills from denting--they are not covered by the 3yr-36000 warranty the dealership said in Toledo, Ohio. (Brown Pontiac) It costs $100 to get new ones put on!
