#2 of 135 Re: 06 G6 GTP 6 Speed Clutch Noise [manualgtp] by eclams Mar 16, 2006 (6:29 am)
My G6 has a very noisy and Clunky transmission. I have had it to the dealer 3 times and I wrote and called GM. I believe there is nothing that can be done. Since it is the first application for this trans in a GM car, I think they just screwed it up. I am going to seek a buyout because I will not put up with the way this sounds. It really shifts poorly and cluncks into gears. Replies to this message: gmhellman (Mar 18, 2006 9:51 am) suisun_sue (Oct 15, 2006 1:25 pm) vscantlin (Aug 01, 2007 7:40 am)

Replying to: eclams (Mar 16, 2006 6:29 am) Your title says that it is coming from the clutch, how do you know? What did the dealer say/do at each service. Is it only in certain gears? Forward and Reverse? Or Forward only? How many miles have put on the car and have you tried another dealer. There are some dealers that have exceptional service dept and others have an exceptionally poor service dept. Not insinuating anything towards you. Just want to get all the information. Had a 99 GA with several problems and the 1st pontiac dealer was completely incompetent and could not fix anything correctly. The second pontiac dealer that I took it to fixed everything on one visit and I never had another problem with the stuff that they had fixed...Did have many other problems with the car over 5 years....biggest piece of crap I ever bought.

Replying to: eclams (Mar 16, 2006 6:29 am) I have a 06 G6 GTP 6 sp manual with the same problem... the transaxle has a lot of slack in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gears. It clunks badly when driven in any of those gears. Have you been able to get your problem fixed, or does anyone else have this same problem and been able to get any resolution? I have not been back to the dealer yet, but intend to go soon as this is a very annoying problem and definitely not right.
#5 of 135 High RPM Shifting problems by mcclendon Jan 04, 2007 (10:44 am)
I have an 06 G6 w/ the 2.4L Ecotech and 4spd Auto. Lately I have been noticing that when at high RPM's the car hesitates and sometimes completely refuses to shift up to the next gear. I have to let off to at least 50% throttle in order for the transmission to finally shift up. Other wise I have not seen any other signs or symptoms from the trans. But however I have noticed some possible electrical problems, i.e. the temp gauge does not always respond and usually reads nothing, and then also the wipers while on wipe at different rates of speed w/out changing the wiper control to do so. Any ideas? Could this be an Electrical problem or a more exspensive transmission rebuild? Replies to this message: amandacriv (Oct 25, 2007 7:06 pm) vscantlin (Oct 26, 2007 5:06 am)
#6 of 135 Transmission Woes by wilson86 Apr 25, 2007 (8:28 pm)
When I bought my 2005 G6 Sedan I was originally looking for a car with a manual transmission but was coerced into settling for the car my dad wanted me to buy. After driving my car for about a year I need a trani that gives me that sports car feeling. My Automatic transmission has honestly become a bore. I was wondering if there are manual transmissions made that will fit into a 2005 G6 Sedan and what subsequent parts I would have to get changed out to make it fit and be compatible with the underbody and the interior (Console) of my car? Or is it more complicated than this? Would it be worth the investment or should I just buy a motorcycle? I am in a bind on what I should do.
#7 of 135 Bump Shift Trany by mgrimm Jul 01, 2007 (11:29 am)
I love this car. I have an 05 G6 GT. The trans in a little ruff but for the most part fun to drive. I like the feeling of being in control. I have read that some the models have had problems. I have only had my car for 2 weeks and I have had no trouble. Runs Great!!
#8 of 135 Re: 06 G6 Making Loud Noise... by vscantlin Aug 01, 2007 (7:40 am)
Replying to: eclams (Mar 16, 2006 6:29 am) My automatic 06' G6 has starting making a noise about 2 wks ago and has since worsend. It only does it when driving and usually starts making the noise after shifting into the first gear. The noise also goes along with acceleration of the car. How do I know if it's the tranny?   ~~In need of help.

Replying to: amandacriv (Oct 25, 2007 7:06 pm) Well, I'm sorry to hear you are also having problems. I did have my car checked. It turned out not to be the tranny, but instead to be the front right wheel bearing going out due to hitting a Huge pot hole during a rain storm 2 wks prior. I've since had it repaired and haven't had problems since. I would call the dealership service dept and just speak to someone about what you're experiencing and see if they can't narrow it down for you and possibly give you a round about estimate.   Good Luck To ya! ~V in Oklahoma City
