My buddy's 2007 Base wobbled a bit for a long time. Replaced the HB when the belt started to chirp/squeak after start-up. This is a sign that the problem is progressing and replacement should be considered.
Good luck...GD

Mine had a very slight wobble on my '07 and I replaced it almost immediately.
I know lots of owners say that theirs wobbled for months and even years before they replaced theirs but keep in mind that is now 16 year old rubber that's holding the outer ring in place.
Hi and welcome!
Just completed my HB replacement and only went for a quick test ride. I was at 63,000 Km. Wobble and chirps gone! can't wait for the warmer to ride.
I have a 2010 base C6, I can see the HB wobbling (97,xxx mi) and beginning to hear the chirp. When replacing it with an ATI is pinning necessary or optional. Thanks

If you plan to supercharge the car, then pin the HB when you have it replaced. If no SC is in your future, then no pinning is needed. Just be sure that the crank bolt is torqued properly & to spec. Otherwise, you could have the HB start to spin on the crank and trouble follows.
