Welcome to CL! Read all the great threads on this forum. The DIY have helped me sooooo much. I learned all about my car on CL....to turning off the seat belt buzzer, turning off idiot lights, having the remote open all 4 doors, installing my front lip, fog lights, Nav hak & commands, LED's, red outs...etc. The list here is endless. Thanks to all who have helped so many! Let the modding begin.....your GF can help & she'll love it!

what exactly is rubbing?
Its a rubbing noise. Not like the sound of rubbing you get from incorrect sized aftermarket wheels.

I can only compare it to the sound of a bad bearing or the brakes rubbing. This happens while driving. Regardless if its straight or turning.

wow nice pick up, and welcome to CL!! Just have the dealership check out any noise. Sometimes when the car sits too long at the lot it might cause corrusion. If you hear noises from the inside its coming from the dash. Have fun and let the mods BEGIN!!!

Nothing done to the G6 besides tint. Its stock.

And if I wasn't so upside down, I may have been driving a new G8 GT about 2 months back. I think it was a blessing in disguise.

No pics of GF will be posted.

I'll get the pics of her ride up once I give it a nice wash/detail.

welcome to cl and IMO starfire pearl is THE BEST COLOR

now~

you need to try to convince her that the 350 is TOO POWERFUL for her and TOO DANGEROUS, so~ to in order to PROTECT her, let her drive the G6 while you will take the 'RISK' of driving the 350 *let us know how that works out for you *
