I was mostly just curious as to what it was because if the car's timing chain broke, depending on the type of engine, the damage is worse.

I tried looking it up on the forum and Googling, but I came up empty.

Could someone please tell me if the 2009 Pontiac Vibe Base 1.8L Engine is Interference or Non Interference ?

Follow up: The fuel pump was replaced... but the car still won't run. It worked before for several days after tapping the fuel tank. So the fuel pump was replaced. but that didn't seem to fix the issue. You can turn the key but I guess the fuel isn't going through? Any suggestions? One of the mechan...

The reason that we think that it\s the fuel pump is that the car would start and run for two seconds and then die. But then my bf's co worker banged on the fuel tank with a rubber mallet and the car started with no problem. He is more experienced than my bf and he diagnosed it as the fuel pump. Now ...

Hi guys, The fuel pump just went on my Vibe (at least that's what I'm told is the reason it's not starting. :P ).

I think I got my letter like two weeks before Christmas. Still waiting on the follow up. But in the meantime I have gotten phone calls from GM for offers for other cars. Pffft. Whatever, I like my Vibe even with its stupid issues.

So I have been told that we need a new fuel pump... but after price shopping it seems it could cost me between $400 to $700 depending on where it is from. Is the Toyota Matrix 09 fuel pump the same as a Pontiac Vibe 09 fuel pump? or are the assemblies different? there was one listed for $100+ but th...

Hey all, new to the forum. I have tried looking up this particular topic before but it is weird and I highly doubt anyone else has experienced it on their Vibe. But I am taking the chance and asking it anyway. So in the morning, I turn the key and there is a rough sound coming from the front. It sta...
