Re: Check out my ride Part 2 (Bocaj77)

It's a bit much for my taste, but i do like the red/black color combo. I'm not so sure on the pink/fuscia color. it doesn't seem to match or flow to me. but who cares what i think. Great that you are trying to branch out your creativity with the Vibe. the civics, neons, and ricers have all been done...

Re: Mid wing Installed Finally (silverawd26)

I have TRD logos on my Vibe GT as well. I've had a few people ask since it says Toyota. Only the few people that don't know the Matrix and Vibe are the same. I even have chrome TRD license plates. Since TRD works in conjunction with GM on a lot of the aftermarket performance parts, I don't think it ...

Plus the chip guard looks much more complicated than the X-pel. Do you see all the separate little pieces for the chip guard? Damn, that's alot of room to screw up!

Leather Interior?

has anyone installed leather interior in their Vibe or Matrix? I was on Matrixvibe.net and saw a thread for Attention to Detail (ADT) offering special prices for Katzkins leather interior. I did some research and found that they have good quality leather and reputable reputation. I ordered mine toda...

Re: CAI and check engine light. (silverawd26)

Bad luck? Possibly. I've had 2 CAI on 2 Toyota based vehicles and the infamous CEL has come on within a day or 2. never have figured out how to get it off other than taking it back to stock. And why would i want to do that? love that deep growl and added umph too much to worry about the nuisance of ...

Re: Hello??? Alaskan Vibe Owners?? (66gto)

I know there has to be more Vibe owners around Alaska. I see more and more everyday. I spoke to the dealership when I bought my Vibe and they only had 3 GT's left to choose from. I was disappointed I didn't get my Moon & Tunes package or the Sport Package. I saw we have an insider up here. Any n...

Re: Dreaded Check Engine Light (trdvibe)

another thought.... I was looking through the notes from some earlier posts and noticed most of the CEL issues involving CAI's are with the GT models. Anyone with a Base Vibe having problems with your CEL after installing a CAI?

Re: Dreaded Check Engine Light (Lorin)

I've had 2 different vehicles with CAI and my CEL lights both came on. The dealership charged me $50 to hook it up to the computer. They told me the computer read Engine runs lean and the cylinders are misfiring. I installed my CAI about 2 weeks ago in my Vibe GT and the CEL came on about 2 days lat...

Re: Check Engine light after Injen CAI (steletma)

I have run into the same problem with my CEL. I installed the TRD CAI in my Vibe GT last weekend and it came on. Were you able to get your CEL to go off? If so, what did you do?I had a 2001 Tundra that had the K & N FIPK on it and the CEL did the same thing. I never got the light to go out.
