I've only had my G6 GT (2007) for a few days and am loving it. However, I have noticed a slight "pop" (or thump) when accelerating from a stop or turning at low speeds (usually accelerating then too). It is hard to tell where it is coming from, but feels like from right behind the steering column. I was wondering if it could be a suspension issue (car has 29k miles on it). My wife's Buick Rendezvous was doing something similar at 35k miles and had to have both front outer tie-ends replaced. Is it normal for the G6 to have a little pop (and it is VERY minor, btw) or something I should have the dealership look at?

Thanks.

Hi, Mine also does that little pop as you say, Let me know what the dealers says if you bring it in.

Lube kit ?

Hi there, As with most of you guys on here as I have the same knocking noise in the front so I took in to the garage (Not the dealer) and they told me that I needed to replace my ball joints as they were almost out of lube. The 2005 and 2006 G6 don't have the lube kits. Does anyone know if I can just buy the lube kit and not replace my ball joints?

Maybe someone could fill a complaint here : http://www.lemonauto.com/complaints/gm/pontiac_g6.htm

This is for USA residents, I can't fill out the form as I'm from Canada.
