How do I check my brake pads to see how much they are worn?I don't want to take them to the shop because I know they're going to tell me I need them replaced (so they can make a few extra $$$).Is there a way I can see/feel how worn they are and how would I know when they need to be replaced?This is ...
happily married now to a vibe/fusion lover who betrayed us all for a subaru You'd better run and hide before Hope swats you over the head with a rolled up newspaper!
I have an '04 and it currently has 32,500 something miles on it!Hmm... that reminds me... I need to get my car to the dealership and get that driver-side cracking noise taken care of before warranty expires!
Bought my 2004 Vibe used for $12,975.Originally financed at $244 and some cents at 4.9% interest for 60 months. Recently refinanced after 6 months (bank's minimum requirement) and now at $351.41 at 2.9% interest for 36 months.I'm paying $500.00 a month ($250.00 every paycheck/two weeks) so I'm ahead...
Yeah I agree with the seats staining easily!Even water stains them and leaves unsightly marks. Looks like I may have to spend some $$$ and get covers. What's the best way to clean the seats btw?
So I have moved out of the 5 bedroom house I (along with 6 other people) rented out for a year and into a 2 bedroom apartment. The Vibe has been more than useful hauling loads of boxes and furniture! What do I find upon entering the parking lot? An abyss monotone Vibe! The first thing that crosses m...
Well then in that case, I would be able to afford to mod my Vibe, then maybe buy five other cars and mod them too! All the while saving a portion of that jackpot to buy a house and saving the remaining portion in savings!Well you know how they say, in order to win you must play. I need to go buy me ...
Masculine..... definitely masculine!It's rugged and sporty and can haul things. Stuff a regular car can't do.I'd say it's more masculine than feminine!
Hmmm..... maybe this means I need to remove my lovely blue "New Car Scent" tree air freshener hanging from my rear view mirror! I do agree, they don't really smell like the real "new car smell" that comes from new vehicles.The new-car smell emanates largely from chemicals known a...
That is just wrong! Spay/Neuter is the way to go!Hmm... maybe they should come up with birth control pills you could mix in with the kibble. What'ya think about that?
Grrr stupid government computers! They are preventing me from viewing this awful sight of a Vibe you all are talking about. Ebay is blocked here at work.Can anyone attach a pic so I can see??
Congrats on the baby! Wow, she's a preemie. I weighed 2 lbs, 6 ounces when I was born and was so tiny I could fit in a shoe box. Glad to hear baby and mom are doing well!
So in other words, when would be the best time of the day to check tire pressure to make sure it's at the correct 32 psi reading?When it's sunny and after driving around for a while?
I too seem to have that problem.I noticed recently that when I'm on the freeway, my car will go straight, but it will sway side to side in which I have to keep my hands on the wheel and redirect my car if it sways too much.It's even worse when I'm going over 80mph.I don't know what's causing it or h...
I have a PS2, Game Cube, and Gameboy Advance. Yeah, I need to upgrade! Thinking about getting an Xbox to keep up with the times.I've just been so busy lately that I hardly have time to play them anymore.
What?! No West coast?? J/K! What would be really cool is if you could do that for the entire U.S. and Canada! Be a really nice way to "see" where all the members are from!
Welcome to GenVibe! Nice lookin Vibe. For the license plate cover, I got mine off of eBay. They are platinum and it says Vibe with the arrow etched into it and they also come with screw caps to hide unsightly screw heads. Looks really great IMO. I'll post pics when I take some.Enjoy the ride!
This was very nice, descriptive and informative!I would like to see more of these "how to's" with pictures for other projects!I'm pretty sure there many other clueless Vibers, such as myself, who would otherwise have a hard time trying to figure out what to do!
I have decided to FINALLY get me some grafxwerks decals. Now my problem is, I don't know what color(s) will look good with my Vibe.I have a two-tone Frosty. I also have the "You just got passed by a wagon " decal in white (not reflective) on the rear hatch below the wiper assembly.I want t...
I was looking at lpunderground.com (that's the fan club for Linkin Park fans) and found a video that shows me (briefly) in it!This was shot at the Barnes & Noble bookstore at The Grove, which is a mall, in La Brea (a section of Los Angeles).Linkin Park was there to promote their book "From ...
The Unibox reminds me of those armored trucks.I like how the clear body panels are made for modifying to your hearts content. Brings out the creativity in people.I also like how the seats can be rearranged around the flat floor. You have the option of having them all installed or all taken out or so...
Yeah that is weird!That is a true Ponyota!I don't see why it would need two different badges... they could have just combined them and made a completely new badge all their own.If that car was here in the states and on a high speed chase with the cops, it could elude them because it's a Pontiac from...

Wow I didn't know my mirror had that extension!I knew it could move up, down, left and right. But I didn't know it had an extension that could adjust the height of the mirror!Gotta check that out later on today.
How about that gel material they put in those "ergonomically correct" mousepads/keyboards? That would be quite comforting. Just have to figure out a material for the top cover.
The mudflaps from GM and autowebaccessories.com are exactly the same thing. The only thing is, the ones from autowebaccessories.com are a couple of dollars cheaper than the GM ones.I ordered mine three weeks ago, and they came in last week. I was told it was only supposed to take four or five days t...
How about:"What attracted you to the Vibe?"- Pontiac styling backed by Toyota reliability- Color- Affordability- Gas-friendliness- Saw one on the road or at a dealership- Amount of storage/cargo spaceSomething that highlights the positive features of the Vibe so that when someone who is in...
