Well, as a back up car and no one but me can drive a manual, it was becoming useless except for me, but every weekend I always have a call for a pickup truck. One of the kids needs it for one thing or the other to move stuff. But when one of their Vibes was down, they took my truck because no one co...

kc6yot

Retired, one less tag, tax and insurance payment. Also I am the only person in my family that knows how to drive a manual shift. The 2004 AWD was not damaged that bad, but per the insurance company the repair cost exceeded the car sell value. All it needed was a new headlight assembly, bumper cover ...

kc6yot

Please check with your local PD, tampering with the OD and miss representing actual mileage, IE roll backs is a federal crime. I got stuck once on a car, seller said it only had 121,000 miles but I found his purchase of a new dash display on e-bay turned out it was like 221,000 miles, TN state polic...

Well the oldest daughter hit a deer with the 2004 AWD, insurance company said it was totaled, son in law traded it in for a new car for her and got $4,000.00 on trade even with the damage. I just sold my 2006 Base Neptune blue 5 speed. All I have left is a 2005 Moon and Tune my youngest daughter's d...

The oldest daughter with the 2004 AWD hit a deer the weekend before Halloween (center). They traded it in for a Chevy Cruse, she and her husband got more for it on trade in that it would cost to repair. Guess actually I have been down to three for a while, as I sold it to her for a $1.00 a year ago....

kc6yot

That is the best deal I have ever seen, great score. Cool rims too. I actually like the grill lines of the 03/04 over the 05 to 08, well the 09 and up is another story and car. Pretty white, roof rack, rims to die for, How many miles and is it a 03 or 04?

kc6yot

I have been looking for a long time for another Vibe for my youngest daughter. Well I found one, 2005 moon and tune for $2,600.00 silver, 146000 miles. Now I have 4 of them next got to figure out how to photo shop my picture to add the newest one.

kc6yot

I am also interested, if still for sale please post pictures.

kc6yot

That just hit the national news today, they do not have stacks of replacement airbags in stock. As with all recalls this is going to take a while.

kc6yot

Nice repair and color match. What? I always thought Vibes come in threes, still looking for one more.

kc6yot

See below all three are mine, looking for another one.

kc6yot

-you scour corolla and matrix forums for used cheap parts Well provide links to such sites. I actually bought a door check from the GM parts on line parts site $40.00 cheaper than the Toyota dealer. The hood hold up rod gourmet was a screw job at the Toyota place too. Where I live the Toyota dealer ...

kc6yot

Wow, that is a fair payoff. But you were hit on the passenger side but the front drivers side is buckled, I think you got smacked harder that you thought. And for all that want it repaired I do not think you can ever get a good front end alignment again. Do you know where it is going, I would love t...

kc6yot

Look on E-bay, someone has a radio for sale for $30.00 plus shipping. Also search for Vibe radio bezel I have seen just the front bezel plastic with the buttons for sale on E-bay before. However, you can upgrade to a newer radio, direct plug in, and gain extra storage space. You can tell a female ow...

kc6yot

OOPs missed the part that it is a 5 speed, the girls only know how to drive an automatic, please disregard.

What state are you in? The car runs? Picture of the front.

kc6yot

Not my stuff.

OK, where is the link to the super duper magic shields for the fog lights. So far I have bought and replaced three fog light sets between my three vibes. one passenger on for the wife, one driver for the daughter and all the rest have been for mine ( cheaper to buy them as a pair). For some reason I...

kc6yot

Thanks Some Yahoo, going to hit up the Toyota dealer parts department as soon as possible.

kc6yot

That is a good deal for an 04, AWD with the low miles. Nice. The AWD has less horse power due to the way they routed the exhaust, you should also expect only 29 mpg tops, but when it rains and snows the AWD is the way to go. The FWD has more power and better MPG. Very nice looking car. I say hi and ...

kc6yot

The Vibe is a good car, you will not be sorry, I have three and I am looking for another one. Do go to a GM dealer and have the vin checked for recalls, the repairs are free.

kc6yot

I have noticed in a lot of post here everyone says go to the junk yard to get this or that. Maybe it is because we do not have the bad winters, ice and stuff, but wrecked Vibes are hard to find, in central Arkansas I have never found a Vibe in the junk yard. Need the fender gourmet for the hood rod,...

kc6yot

actually, it would really help us by telling how much you got for your car from the dealer? At $13,000, the car is well over $5000 too high for what I would be willing to pay for a 2006. I bought my Honda Fit Sport, automatic from a guy who was moving for $6500. Your car is now listed at twice that...

kc6yot

I added the lever, and the cruise control works very nicely. Unfortunately, the horn is now not working. No wires were disconnected (except for the green ground wire, as instructed).Any ideas / suggestions / similar experiences would be appreciated - thanks! PLEASE, Please stop telling people to re...

kc6yot

I am glad you found this site and the radio link was good for you. So far every thing I have had to fix myself on my three Vibes I found what I needed here. If you ever want to give up that ten year old clunker let me know, Would give me a reason to fly out to CA, see my old ship in San Diego and ta...

kc6yot

Welcome, replace the cabin air filter and verify that mileage.

kc6yot

The OEM radio back lights are not LEDs they are bulbs, there is a great post on this site on how to change them. http://forums.genvibe.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=26889" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Did it for my wife's car, used the bulbs form AutoZone and it is b...

kc6yot

As most of the Vibes that are parted out are front end hits, the fog lights do not seem to survive that well. However, you can get the replacements on E-bay with a new bulb and free shipping included. Make sure you use the price and shipping lowest feature. I gave up trying to find any here that cos...

kc6yot

Wow in the 80s for millage and in Kalifornia, should not have any rust problems, and your state's smog checks at least it should be well in tune, good find. Over here no one seems to be selling even a 2003 with over 140,000 to 180,000 miles for less than $4,950.00. Also unlike a lot of other places,...

kc6yot

I am very happy with the Vibes I have, when I buy oil only need one type, when I buy filters they are all the same. Plugs seem to last 80,000 to 100,000 miles. The few little things I have had to fix I found the answers here and did it myself saving even more big bucks. There is still a perception t...

kc6yot

You mean this picture? By the way I am looking for another Vibe to replace the youngest daughter's 1999 Toyota Corolla. Either a older one for her or a newer one for the wife and we play musical cars and pass them around again.

kc6yot

I have an 04 and two 06 Vibes, I like the look of the 03/04 front end, the 05/08 seems too rounded off and the grill depth styling of the newer vibes just does not look as good as the early ones. So, everyone says it should fit, but has anyone actually done it? If so please post some pictures and te...

kc6yot

Step 8 is wrong, that is the ground for the horn relay. Move it to your new switch plug if it did not come with a green ground wire. I do not know why people keep putting out bad info, that is the horn relay ground, do not remove it, horn will not work without it. I installed the switch in my 2006 5...

kc6yot

Well the original post was some time ago, did you find out what was making the moo sound?

kc6yot

It may be an old post, but I use Avast free, Malwarebytes free and Spybot S&D free. Only once in ten years using the free stuff did I ever have a virus do any damage and that was my fault. Just have to be sure to keep it up to date, and run the scans.

kc6yot

Do you have the center console lid?

kc6yot

New again, back on again, I canceled my ad, but after I ordered a replacement set my Vibe got hit on the passenger side. Does anyone make them with impact resistant plastic instead of glass? Please note E-Bay has new ones for $38.95 that includes a new bulb and shipping. Looking for something cheape...

Do you still have the fog lights? If so shoot me an e-mail shipping to 72023.

Hi, sent a private message, looking for the two part tall center console lid, the power plug and wiring for the center console and how much do you want for the tires and rims? Do you have the cross bars for the roof rack, and the grommet that goes in the passenger fender for the hood hold up rod?

kc6yot

Three of them, agree with everyone else tires first. One easy test, in an empty parking lot roll the windows down, turn off the A/C and radio, in reverse make hard left and right circles. If you hear any clicking or scrubbing noise, might want to check the trans axles for the clicking or brake pads ...

kc6yot

Got ya beat, have three Vibes, welcome to the site.

kc6yot

Thanks to all for this topic and all the others related to Cruise Control. 2006 Base with 5 speed manual. Works just as everyone says. Ordered the AC Delco Part D1919E (ACD#84630-02041 / GM 88974274.) Also the green wire is for the horn, not sure who miss stated it was a ground to tell the computer ...

Do you have the DC plug with wiring for the center console?
Also looking for the roof rack cross bars and the fender grommet for the hood hold up rod.

kc6yot

Thanks for your post, I used the Sylvania Long Life 74ll bulbs from Auto Zone. $10.88 total cost for the repair, the wife is happy her radio display is working perfect now. Note of caution, look out for the sharp metal edges on the mounting brackets, ouch.

Wow that sucks, I have bought three Vibes and all I have do to keep them running is change oil, all the filters and put gasoline in them. All three run like a dog hit in the backside with a big rock, they just purr at 3000 rpm going down the highway. Even the AWD gets 29MPG or better, hope you get i...
