    Anyone else get this response?
    The dealearships really push the injector cleaning. I am a firm believer if it ain't broke and doesn't cause me any problem yet, why would I want to spend $170?

        After having the dealer adjust the computor the over cranking continued...todays visit I was told the technical dept at Pontiac said to use different gas......and if that didn't work we should check for fuel injector seepage. I still have no confidence in this story....

            I returned mine to the dealer last year (when it was still under factory warranty, is now under a after-market warranty with deductable) and was told the PCM was tweeked. The problem went away but is now back. Anyone know if they will take it back under the campaign or will I have to pay my deductable to get it taken care of?

                i just had my car in for the same deal. the told me its normal..... i kind of have a hunch that it something to do with the fuel being either not enough pressure or its simply leaking back or in the fuel rail

                              Bringing this issue back. My wife's 06 G6 GT started doing this last night. We tried starting it about 4 times, (engine already warm), and it just cranked and cranked, shook violently and then died. Any update on the situation?
