  Oh man, preaching to the choir. I am the second owner of this 2005 G6. Bought it in 2007 with 22k miles. Replaced a front bearing, back rotors (due to excessive rust), radio, and a sun roof water leak in 2008, while it was just finishing the warranty. The leak was from a drain tube coming unattached. The radio was just past warranty, so GM would do nothing about a 4 ... Read More

  I think they changed something with the compression ratio for the 09's. They specified 91 octane minimum for the 08's because they knew that the engines would knock loud enough. An engine that normally runs on 87 octane won't knock loud enough that you can hear it. If you run 91 octane in yours, you may see a slight increase in performance and fuel economy. I don't know what gas goes ... Read More

  Do you suppose nothing changed and they just dropped the 91 octane rating for sales purposes. It says the engine will run on 87, you suppose if I used 91 in mine I would have increased power?

  My engine is code B, 87 octane. Only 09 that will run E85 is the 3.5 VIN code K. It also states the 3.6 VIN code 7 will run better on 89 octane for towing. Everything else in the 09 line up is 87 octane. Something must have changed from 08 to09.

  Your 09 is also compatible with E85 Flex-Fuel, correct? This was not available for the 2008 model year. The 2008 owners manual states: "If your vehicle has the 2.4L L4 engine (VIN Code B), use premium unleaded gasoline with a posted octane rating of 91 or higher.
