How often will I need Pontiac G6 differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician.

What causes a G6’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

If your G6 has its malfunction warning light (more commonly called the check engine light) illuminated, it could indicate engine troubles, problems with the transmission, electrical issues, malfunctioning sensors, connector problems, or misfire issues.

Can you clear the G6 check engine light on your own?

While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your G6’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems. You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.

How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my G6?

If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your G6, it is important to have it inspected by a professional mechanic as soon as possible to identify the underlying cause and perform the necessary repairs. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can be dangerous and cause further damage to your car.

Is the transmission considered part of the drivetrain in my G6?

Yes, the drivetrain system in your G6 includes the transmission. Other components in the drivetrain are the driveshaft, axles, and differential. Together, these components deliver power from the engine to the wheels to push your G6 forward.

All About 2007 Pontiac G6 Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your G6's engine to its wheels. It spans the full length of your Pontiac, from back to front. It’s one of your G6’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. Care for your 2007 Pontiac G6 to maintain its performance power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Pontiac's recommendations.
