Oil leaking from above the oil filter
I had this problem on my 06 G6. The oil filter housing gasgket needed to be replaced.

Gas cap probably need to be replaced, their inexpensive.

Transmission Fluid. Pontiac G6. 2006
The trannsmission is a sealed unit and there is no dipstick. Check to see if you have a leak. More than likely it sounds like your low on fluid at least a 1/2 to a whole quart. Since these are sealed units it should be taken to the dealership to have looked at. If there is not any leaks then I would add 1/2 qt of tranny fluid and try driving so see if it helped. If it helped a little but the same problems are still there add another 1/2 qt. If it doesnt solve the problem then your tranny needs to be looked at.
