2003 Vibe GT rod bearing knock. WTS or part out

Post by YotaGT »

2003 Pontiac Vibe GT, it's a Toyota Matrix XRS with Pontiac Badges.
Come buy my Vibe, Vicky needs love too! I'd be willing to part it out if there's enough interest.
Location: near Chicago, Hammond, Indiana.
Asking $1100 for the whole kit and caboodle. Got a spare black door too.

Selling my car of the last two and a half years. The engine started leaking a little bit, looks like more than I expected.. the engine was about 2 quarts low when the knock appeared unfortunately. Super awesome car that never let me down.
Plugs.. coil-packs, exhaust gaskets, water pump, timing chain tensioner seal, you name it, I replaced it over this time. Ran amazing at such a high mileage.

Mostly highway miles with a long and well documented maintenance history available for your review.
Tires and audio equipment have warranties that will transfer to you, same goes for any parts I purchased.. I have the receipts and for any service (like the alignment performed after I replaced the struts).

-SRS side airbags.
-NEW front airbags were replaced under recall by Christenson GM in 2017.

-Working Cruise Control
-Working A/C and Heating
-Working Power Converter Outlet, keep a laptop or cell phone charging while driving!
-New Rear Floor Mats, Used WeatherTech Mats up front
-Hatchback Gas Struts are new, the separate glass window opens for quick cargo access
-Cargo Hooks, Cargo Net, and Privacy Cover in the trunk! Really handy for hauling furniture, books, bicycles, anything!

-Clutch kit, engine mounts Fall 2016.

-Struts and Stiffener bar installed, with the Newer All-Season Tires it blows your mind how well it cruises in dry and wet weather.
-It also STOPS, has ABS. The Brake calipers, rotors, and pads, everything was replaced within the past 5 years.
Stop tech slotted rotors up front 8-) and Raybestos Copper ceramic pads ... she stops on a dime.

-Sony MEX-XB100BT Bluetooth, Pandora, USB Radio with a built-in Amplifier pushing extra power to
-Kicker KSC65 speakers all around. Sounds Great!

-Codealarm 2-way long range Remote Start and Security system professionally installed. Upgraded Horns.
-Stay warm this winter and stay secure with the upgraded security system.

If you part it, I may be interested in front floor mats, steering wheel and shift knob.. all depending on price/condition. PM if you go that way.
