Already in and the system is working correctly!Will check the tool out though................

Vibedad

Replaced the Blower Motor Resistor today after my blower motor in my 05 would only work on high. The Part # is 88973260 and CDN Cost is $56.76.It is located under the dash very close to the back of the glove box. It is held in place with 2 11/32 inch bolts. The back one is almost impossible to remov...

Vibedad

Thanks - I will try that first and advise.It will probably be over the weekend.

Vibedad

All connections are tight and the system has been installed for almost a year. The problem has been happening for the past 4 months.I will replace the MAP and advise.Thanks for the info.

Vibedad

Have an 05 Base manual tranny with a Cosmo CAI. The CEL comes on almost constantly after resets (regardless of how long I disconnect the battery or have the system reset at the garage).It also bogs down under hard acceleration - if you let the pedal up slightly, the car planes out and accelerates re...

Vibedad

Yes, it is the door, not the glass hatch that will not lock. I will pull the panel and check the connections. If I find nothing, it's off to the dealer, I guess!

Vibedad

I just discovered my rear hatch does not lock or unlock with the remote. Does it have it's own fuse? What else could / should I check?I don't want to waste the time with a trip to the Dealer.ThanksVibedad

Vibedad

I want a set too!!Count me in!!!!

Vibedad

Oiled when first installed which was back in May, so I doubt that would be the problem now. I will try some injection cleaner to see if it helps. I also noticed that the hose that runs from under the plastic engine cover into the CAI had a very tight bend in it. I am wondering if it was crimping so ...

Vibedad

Checked my paperwork from the Dealer. Code set was PO171 - diagnose cause of lean condition.Codes cleared and retested 5% @ idle

Vibedad

Will the long battery disconnect make a difference? I just don't know what effect this would have.

Vibedad

Have a Cosmo on my 05 Base that has worked great with only a few problems in 6 months. Now, about every other day, my CEL is ON! A quick check with the dealer found it to be related to air flow so I know it's my CAI. I have checked all the connections as well as the filter and all seems OK. When I r...

Vibedad

No sticker on mine either!What pricing did he give you?

Vibedad

Add me in too for headlights and fogs if the price is right!

Vibedad

I e-mailed him on Monday and he got back to me right away. I reached him at:dubblea@peoplepc.comTrust this helps and that I did not break any rules by posting his e-mail address!

Vibedad

Thanks to all who offered advice!The install went off without a hitch and I was able to install the spoiler WITHOUT drilling any of the interior access holes shown in the instructions! With a pair of small hands (my eleven year old son's) and one of those 's' shaped screwdrivers, I was able to reac...

Vibedad

Installed mine on the weekend. Mine are blue and show just like the pics on Page 3 of this post!Excellent product - look great and fits good too!

Vibedad

Thanks all! If the weather stays as great as it has and my son's hockey does not interfere too much, I will attempt the install on the weekend!Will advise and thanks again for all the advice!

Vibedad

Thanks for all the suggestions! I will leave it on for the winter (at least the beginning) and see how it goes!

Vibedad

I have an 05 with the Cosmo and it is great! Easy fit. The unit on your Ebay link appears to have been assembled backwards for the picture - the bends etc. look right but the filter is on the WRONG END! One of the best things about the Cosmo unit - it has a rubber/nyoprene elbow at the filter end wh...

Vibedad

I am the lucky owner of a new mid-gate spoiler and want to install it. I have searched the posts but cannot find clear instructions for removing the rear hatch interior to install the spoiler. Is a special tool needed? If not, how do I do it?

Vibedad

Living in Ontario, Canada, we can, at times get some very cold winter weather. The last couple of years, we have only had a couple of big snow falls so I do not think that that is an issue. For those of you with CAI, do you leave them on year round or take them off and go back to stock for the winter?

Vibedad

Just ordered mine guys!Will post some pics when done!

Vibedad

I'm in.2005 Abyss Base

Vibedad

No - didn't just fuel up (hardly ever have to - right??)I live in Canada and I do not know of anyone that will read the codes for us up here - we don't have an Auto Zone or Pep Boys.Back in a week - off up north!

Vibedad

Just finished packing to go away and cannot open the hood with the windsurfer on top.I will be back July 31st and will look and update with some pics.It will take you about a week or so to get it anyway.Later

Vibedad

The car actually has about 17,000 km on it now - it was purchased in May of this year (05). I will print these pics and have the dealer look at these points. THANKS

Vibedad

I bought mine from Cosmo Racing out of Quebec, Canada. Great unit, easy install. Full length, witha nice neoprene (?) elbow that goes on before the air filter to get around the foglight. The only thing I had to do that was abnormal was run a longer piece of hose from the line that runs under the eng...

Vibedad

Was into the Dealer yesterday. I went for a drive with the Service Manager, ( WHO LOVES THE MODS i'VE DONE) and we went for a drive. He agrees that it is rough and abnormal. According to him, there are no places to lubricate. At his request, I am going to monitor it over the next few weeks - I will ...

Vibedad

I installed my Cosmo Racing CAI about 6 weeks ago. I pulled the negative cable to reset the ECM, let her idle and have not had a problem at all in fact, - I love it.Today, I was driving on the highway in a heavy rainstorm (wiper full speed type) , when my check engine light came on. I again pulled t...

Just saw a set on E-bay under Matrix, sorry, don't know how to post the link, but it is Item # 7987909232.Do not know anything about the company or product, but thought this may help

Vibedad

Have a base 05 Vibe, 12,000 kms about 2 1/2 months old. Just installed Tein S springs with 16" factory mags and tires.Since I bought the car, it has not shifted smoothly. It feels like it is getting worse. It feels rough going from gear to gear. Has any one else experienced the same problem? I ...

Vibedad

Had my Tein S springs installed by a friend today!Car looks and drives amazing ! It did not drop as far as I thought it would though. The top of both front and rear wheel arches were at 27 1/2 inches before the install. Both are now at 26 inches. The car is only 3 months old so that may be part of t...

Who else has added the Grafxwerks door sill overlays?Do they last long? Hard to clean, etc?

Where did you get the Megan strut brace and what is the part #? I have been looking for one but it is not listed on their website.ThanksVibedad

Vibedad

Just received and tried to install the COSMO CAI on my 2005 Base Vibe today. Did not get far, the first thing I found was a tube running from the under the engine cover into the air Duct - some posts have called it a smog vacuum line. What do I do with it? Second, I could not find the first (front) ...
