Since new (now 15,000km) The G6 stock was crap as expected in corners but over bumps and surface changes it was horendous, worse than the old BF XR6 with 80,000km on it. Surprisingly that is now fixed also.....Wonder if Pedders can examine the stock units I took out and tell me if they were stuffed so I can take them to the dealer with some lube........ 5 times back there in 6 months and they couldnt find an issue, till the front sway bar had rattled its way loose.Interesting they were also the last to have the wheels off, front right wheel nuts today were little more than hand tight Edited 04/07/10 11:54 AM by Jizza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
