03 Vibe GT

It runs rough, probably just a tune up, needs a catalytic convertor, hood latch, some TLC. I would love for someone to enjoy this whip as much as I did. I think there are about 180k miles, dry, no critters. Wife wants it out of the yard and wants to scrap it. I got a short reprieve to try to find so...

Re: Original 2003 Vibe GT for sale...

It's covered in snow, so no pics for a week or two. Color is Cherry Red. I put a fresh battery in. It was running a little rough from not starting in a while. Definitely needs a new catalytic converter, hood needs the latch cleaned out good or replaced. Fabric is ok, newish stereo. scratch above the...

Re: Original 2003 Vibe GT for sale...

Sadly, I also have a 2003 GT for sale. My wife is ready to give it up, and I wanted to see if anyone would like to salvage it before it goes to scrap. It needs work, and a little TLC, but I will let it go cheap to someone who would like to keep it going. I'm in Upstate NY. Message me for details or ...

Re: 2003 Vibe GT sputtering in all gears at normal speeds, s

Thank You, sorry it took so long to get back to this. I think I replaced the air flow sensor, so I was misled at the store.

Re: 2003 Vibe GT sputtering in all gears at normal speeds, s

I also have a 2003 GT. I replaced the clutch plate, an once everything was together the check engine light was on. Went to the local Pep Boys & had them test it for free. The error was P0120. I had some trouble understanding the guy's english, but from what I understood it is either the Mass Air...

Re: Manual Transmission Oil Change

Thanks to Joatman's pics and mention of the upper nut to help fill. I did not have a normal piece of hose, but I found a bit of PEX hose which helps in a way because I'm not trying to hold the funnel, hose & bottle of fluid, the funnel sits snug in the PEX, so those need to be balanced, not held.

Re: Changing the clutch in a Pontiac Vibe or Toyota Matrix

Does anyone have the specs on how much torque to use on the various bolts? My main concern is the cover over the clutch plate (6 bolts). The rest I'm not too worried about, or I found elsewhere.

Re: 2003 Single CD Moon & Tunes - mini phone jack trigger (Roeman)

Ok, I'm new to "fixing" my wife's GT, but I have a squirrely idea from left field.If you look at the hookups going into the HU; 1 is grey & blue 24 pin, the other is black & grey 12 pin. The 24 pin is using 17 pins, the 12 is only using one. In theory, couldn't some of those unused...
