Thanks . Doesn't answer my question though.

I believe the other numbers you noted are for the AWD Vibe/Matrix.

Thanks . Doesn't answer my question though.

Hello friends ; I have a 2008 Vibe 183K miles, Auto Trans, non-ABS brakes. I'm looking to swap out/in a complete steering knuckle/bearing/hub assembly on my front drivers side (this is a one-vehicle household, getting a ride from a neighbor to and back to the closest shop which could press bearings ...

@ vibrologist, @ cptnsolo77 : I just want yous to know, per your recommendations, I bought the Moog control arms. Yeah there's cheaper stuff out there, arm & ball-joint sets for under 80, but no-name, manuf'd in China, for a cabin filter, okay, but for braking or steering, I won't do. I work for...

@ cptnsolo77 : Thanks. I'm glad you responded and that you just did the drivers' side control arm last week. I haven't done any suspension jobs on this car yet, but have on others so I'm not afraid of it. I replaced motor mounts on a Saturn so I"ve jacked from below before. When you did Drivers...

I'm shopping.... looking for input yes/no from those who used any of these brands.... I need to replace control arms and ball joints (perhaps tie rod ends also) on my 08 stock Vibe (w/ Auto Trans, 166 K miles). I just had to have replaced the drivers side drive axle (which failed on the road within ...

Tire shopping ?... Looking to buy new ? ... I just put on a brand new pair of rubber up front and got a good tire (it appears) at a really good price so thought I'd share. I'll withhold the brand-name for a moment ... it's not Continental or MIchelin or Pirelli.... I never heard of these. And when I...

"I think you got your money's worth. My father in law always waited until the battery died - then it is a pain especially when you don't belong to AAA and if you (like him) have only one car. A lot easier to do that on a "preventive" basis on your own schedule." It was time. I f...

Thanks all. Just replaced mine today. I guess 59 months in Fla is long enough, right?

Hello all:...
Curious... Those of you who own (or owned) 2006 thru 2010 Vibes ... How many years you got out of your original-factory 65D23L Battery? ... and particularly if you live in the hot deep south. mke in fla

75 K on my '08 (manuf 10/07). Just replaced today.

Just did my 08 today, w/ 75 K miles on the factory originals. As easy as any front pad job i've ever done. Note to novices reading this thread before doing a front-pad job for the first time -- one really MUST have that 6 to 8 inch C-clamp....or some other tool to compress the brake-piston back into...

Didn't have to pull the motor or resistor. Removed the connector, got in with my smallest file, crimped it w/ a needle-nose (without cracking the outer plastic), and that appartently was all that was needed. Fan runs at all speeds (so i expected already it wasn't that resistor issue that i've read a...

08 Vibe, 48 K miles. Problem started about 3-4 months ago. With A/C on, motor cuts out and in intermittently. Needed a whack or two with a handy umbrella or something, and then it would continue on, then off, then on again with road bumps. Was okay for couple months. Acting up same way again, but no...

'08 Vibe, 40K miles. I've read thru all the postings which come up when you search 'blower motor.' I've read if the blower stays on w/ 'high' fan setting only that it's likely a bad resistor. This is different. This one will come on at the low or mid fan control setting, but when A/C switch is press...

That's a good question... you mean the mod to prevent DRL's from functioning?... I don't know (but would like to do that...mine have been functioning for the 10 months i've had it...but i'd prefer to manually control them). Is that as simple as removing a relay?... Yeah, perhaps previous owner had d...

North:really odd how it happened... It's not like I was doing any off-road stuff, no out of the ordinary jostling. And where this junction box is, above glove-box and facing up, no way it could have been accidently kicked or bumped against to loosen it up any. I've seen contacts blown off of swiches...

JOATMON:You Nailed it man, thanks. Got my fingers up and over the top of it... somehow that one Tail Relay was up, loose, just a little bit, pulled it down firmly, and voila, everything now works!!!

"....a couple of inconveniently placed 10mm bolts gets it loose..."Man, you ain't kidding! The two accessable bolts I got out w/ no problem, but there's one at the back facing up that's impossible to get at, unless you hire a magician or a midget, or remove the entire dash-top ....

Joatmon:yeah, as far as I know, no mods ever done....(at least I haven't done any, and it doesn't look like anything's been done) It"s one of the factory radios as pictured in my Vibe handbook. That pix you posted with that Tail Relay and the other two -- I can swap the 110v relay in to test, a...

Joatman:This Vibe has daytime running lights which come on automatically when engine started and parking-brake taken off. Headlights I turn on manually. But again, this is not only the rear taillights affected here -- it's tail lights, lisence-plate light(s), front amber parking lights, interior ins...

Thanks but it's not that easy, Grizzly....The GM dealer close-enough by where I bought it at and who certified it was a Chevy-only dealer and closed up--out of business. I want to find one which was selling Pontiac-and-something-else (Chevy, Caddy, Buick) and is still open..and have kept their same ...

Thanks Kostby:Bummer!... i've got CDRW's but can't really justify buying a pack of CD-R's....I have CD audio which was burned for me by someone who doesn't know .cda or .mp3 from .huh or .how -- they play just fine, but burned on CD-R media using W Media Player (an older version, 10 or possiblly eve...

2008 Vibe (bought used). Anyone know where I can locate detailed specs for the CD player/radio installed pictured on page 3-44 in my 80 Vibe owners manual (the one on the left, not the six-disk player. Mine is not labeled 'MP3' anywhere on the face of the unit, so i'm assuming it's 'Radio with CD 'B...

Hello folks:I want to disable the (auto-on) daytime running lights on my 2008. (If I ever drive in Canada I can just turn them on manually--otherwise no reason to burn out a bulb prematurely). I expect several have done it already. How?... thanks, mike
