2005 Vibe doesn't start right away..... Any tips?

Hi all,Our 2005 Vibe (Auto) sometimes has a problem of turning over and not starting right away. Now, if we turn the key back and try again, it starts fine.It doesn't do it that often (only 4 times this month). But, it is a bit anoying. We had the dealership check it out last month and there are no ...

Re: How much was your car alarm? (NetRyderz)

Ours was on sale for $349, the Viper 650XV model.They added $10 for the hatch and $10 for the dome light, but I don't think the guy knew that the dome light was included with the door locks. Might have the wife call them about that tomorrow.Anyway, is that a good price? I called a few other places b...

How did they tint your back window (hatch)?

Hi Everyone,Just took the wife's 05 Vibe down this morning to get the Windows tinted.Beforehand, I was wondering how they would get the hatch tinted because of the "hatch handles" (or whatever they are called) on each side. I am talking about the things that keep the hatch propped open. Th...

It does include wheel/rim damage as well. Is the price good?She was at the dealership anyway to get the oil changed so that's why we tried to get it plugged there. I've also heard that you can't plug the side wall, but this is the outer tread, close to the side wall.

Re: Adding Miles on new car? Help! (NetRyderz)

Thanks everyone,Leaving work today at about 3. We looked into renting a car but we are both 24 so those under 25 fees really suck.My wife doesn't mind taking the Vibe and I think I am leaning a little more toward that. I'll probably drive most of the way but don't think I want to be forced into it i...
