Anybody drive a 2002 Chevrolet camaro? How are they? I want to get a v8 coupe 35th anniversary in automatic in a red color with white stripe

09Viberator

How do aftermarket 18 inch wheeles and tires work on the 2009 base?

09Viberator

what are the sizes of standerd wheels for the 2nd gen vibs? will the bigger stock rims fit on the 09 base?

09Viberator

I don't suggest cleaning the MAF. They are very tender devices and if not done right it will cost you $100 or more to replace it, just inspect it for any chunks of (removed). Make sure you have the battery disconnected when fooling with it. Very rarely will cleaning the MAF do anything to improve t...

no, I have not!

09Viberator

ok ya... does need to get the radiator flushed but that's easy to change i guess..... I will run some fuel injector cleaner on it's next gas up and will see how it runs, because as of now, in drive, the car needs the gas pedel down about half way to get any real power

09Viberator

our 2009 pontiac vibe has lost power going up hills and i have to downshift to 2nd gear to get power.... it has the 1.8 with about 35,000 miles plus we use 89 octane Arco gas on another note, should i schedule for a tune up at the dealer? needs plugs, wires and cap, radiator flushed, and needs a new...

Kinda a blessing that the battery in my Hyundai accent lasted as long as it did... t's a 2001 and we just replaced the battery in 2011 so I guess it's just luck?

09Viberator

What I found was the closest to the OEM gt rims is konig's indecent but they still don't look quite the same

09Viberator

was wondering what your guys think are the closest looking aftermarket wheels to the second gen vibe gt that will fit the 1.8 vibe base....

09Viberator

09Viberator

finally got a photo of the 09 1.8 vibe.... love this car! This is the car's Late Spring/Summer/Early Fall look...

09Viberator

there is something about second gen vibes that i like but i can't think of it!

09Viberator

oh... now i want one.... wait orange?

09Viberator

oh.... ya.... hey did the second gen gt ever come in a white color?

09Viberator

ya.... I love the steel blue metallic GT! It looks like the color of my Ford aspire but is not metallic like the sexy vibe!

09Viberator

lots of different red GT's for sale around here... i think one was $18,000 but it had like 60,000 mi.... way too expensive

09Viberator

welcome! love that color!

09Viberator

ya... have not needed to change wiper blades yet.... my Hyundai does get about the same EPA rating for MPG but i think the Vibe gets better MPG then the Hyundai

09Viberator

well... that sucks! I really think that all the engines would benefit from the 5 speed auto and manual tranny.

09Viberator

ya this vibe does not have the factory automatic doors, windows and moonroof... it is the most basic model available but it does come with xm radio....

going from an Aspire/Hyundai to the vibe in a few years.... it right now is mom and dad's car

09Viberator

ya... so far we have the only white 09 1.8 vibe around here... i do see lots of 03-08 vibes around but not that many 09+ vibes around here....when i do see an 09+ they are the GT and/or have the 2.4 engine....

09Viberator

oh... ya... i do really like that steel blue metallic color, kinda looks like my aspire but my aspire is not metallic.... how good is the MPG (Manuel vs Auto) on the 2.4 GT? I here that the 2.4 gets better MPG then the 1.8

09Viberator

I would like to say that everybody here is so great and helpful.... thank you for all the advice.... i still need to take photos of my 09 vibe when it stops rainning here (it is raining on and off). oh... hey how meany of you guys and gals own a 09/10 vibe? what have you done to it so far? post phot...

09Viberator

anybody know where i could find the side cargo panel with the subwoofer housing i would like to install a subwoofer without limiting the flat load floor....

09Viberator

ok i want to install a subwoofer that way... i don't wanna limit the flat load floor with a big old subwoofer box

09Viberator

just wanted to say.... i always see this around and I yet to get a photo of it....

09Viberator

saw a Vibe GT in town today.... I want one... this one was drove by a 50+ year old man https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-dRExElQY4GY/UZrWrMO7y8I/AAAAAAAAABw/udAwc90KUm4/s800/WP_20130520_001%255B1%255D.jpg https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-Ffs-MSXVNRg/UZrW4HWSJyI/AAAAAAAAAB4/YtWS2kNNSLE/s800/WP_201...

09Viberator

does the subwoofer panel from the vibe with factory subwoofer fit the vibe without the factory subwoofer?

09Viberator

oh... ok

09Viberator

how much do you want for the amp and sub?

09Viberator

ok well thank you....

09Viberator

well amp and stuff of that sort.... the standard radio seems to have lots of bass and it is one of the best radios i have heard yet

09Viberator

does all the parts for the 09/10 factory monsoon audio system fit a 09/10 car without the monsoon audio system?

09Viberator

ok thanks

09Viberator

thanks... will get some photos of it in a moment... i do really like the white vibes but I also like the red or blue metallic colors

09Viberator

i believe Konig has some rims that look really similar to the 09/10 GT rims but i will look into it....

09Viberator

does anybody know where I can get a set of 09/10 GT rims for my base vibe would like to see how much they are before i go out and buy some....

09Viberator

hey, been reading and browsing around the site for the past few days and wanted to introduce myself here. I currently own a white 2009 Pontiac Vibe 100% base with the 1.8 engine and 4 speed auto, bought it brand new from our local dealer in April of 2009. I think that this car is very nice and that ...
