New member with a 2003 Vibe

Post by KingKrab65 »

I am new to the forum though I have been lurking for a few weeks. I just bought my 2003 Vibe at the beginning of April. (It is replacing my 1992 Toyota Paseo that finally passed on at 245,000 miles.) Though I have only had the Vibe a few weeks, I love it a lot already. It is a peppy car and I am amazed at the space inside of it.

I have learned a lot from the Forum already and am glad to be a member. Thanks for having me!

I live in Charlotte, NC.

It is a silver Vibe with gray interior. It has 138,000 on the odometer. I know the previous owner went to NC State University School of Nuclear Engineering because the ghosted image of a window sticker appears whenever I look in the review mirror.

I have already replaced the blower motor and, upon recommendation from this site, the sensor that is upstream from the blower motor. The blower motor was squeaking pretty bad and was driving me crazy.(You can only turn the radio up sooo loud).
