Check out our latest project - a 2008 Pontiac G6. Should we turn it into a field bomber pickup truck?

Let me tell you as a 06 Pontiac G6 owner, these cars are underrated! Iv had mine for yrs never needed anything but a new battery oil changes and the AC motor! Its a very dependable car good on gas and if you take care of all the required maintenance it will last a long time! Im actually repainting mine black this summer and will continue to fix what ever she needs! PPL will always have their own opinion but im telling you from my own personal experiences! Its awesome car! 😊

I have a white ‘07 G6 with the 3.5/automatic that my friend and I just got started again after it sat for near 7 years and we worked on it for a couple months. Needs new exhaust brackets/couplings and new power steering lines that we are taking care of, but it sounds beautiful! Love this car. Brought my kids home from the hospital with it, and I’ll never get rid of it.🤞🏼🙏🏼

Those 60 degree late model GM V6’s (3.1,3.4,3.5) don’t usually survive being overheated to 260 degrees plus more than once or twice without needing the heads pulled and sent out to be surfaced and a new set of top end gaskets.

Congratulations. New thermostat, throttle body cleaning, might help. Also, I would suggest you add a bottle of catalytic converter cleaning to you fuel. I have a 2007 G6 standard transmission and it was the solution. By the way, your G6 looks good.

Yeah mine always reads right below the 225. My coolant crossover was the culprit for getting hot all the time. The gasket if I may clarify. I got 217k on mine. And it's been good for over 2 yrs now. They are known for that on 07 and up models

I have the same car but 09. More updated and it's been very faithful for me. I've had to put some work into it but it's one my favorite vehicles I've ever owned. If it's a 3.5 v6, you take care of them the engine will last a long time. They're somewhat easy to work on and mostly everything but the thermostat is easy to repair. Def worth the $.

Thanks for the comment and for watching! I was able to get this one fixed - there’s another video on that, it needed a new crankshaft position sensor. It ran good once the check engine lights were all resolved! 😎👍🏻

Positive ground??? 😅 Negative should never burn on the hood. We sold a 01 Bonneville with key program faults passkey 3 mega fail. The dealer probably could have bypassed it. $200 and my family wouldn't let me do much with it. I'll never sell a Toyota though. Cold dead hand vehicles.
