I have an 03 base model that needs a new motor, or possibly a rebuild of the original (ran on low oil on highway - engine is not seized, but has super loud knock, sounds like a machine gun). I'm looking for the end result that is the best value.
If you know the Vibe, and know the 1zz-fe and think you can pull this off in a reasonable amount of time please PM me with contact info.
Would also be interested in referrals for Cincinnati/Dayton/Columbus area shops, if their prices are highly competitive.
Thanks!
