Go CANUCKS!!! Ha, ha. Doesn't looklike there are many Canucks fans here!

vibegirl

Hey there,I want to get my windows tinted dark black. I do NOT want that reflective looking tint. Where did you get yours done? Are you happy with it? What was the cost? What percent did you get? And about that java...let's do it when the sun finally arrives!

vibegirl

I always hear a ticking when I start my car but it goes away when it warms up. ???

vibegirl

I heard a commercial that said that the minimum ring in to win prize is now $1000 CDN.

vibegirl

Mine is always on, can't even turn the darn lights off EVER!

vibegirl

I have this option..only $55 CDN a year and worth it! There is also a new theft detterant program here in BC. The police apparently have developed it to combat organized auto theft. The dealer scans a barcode into each peice of your car. I have no clue how they do this!The barcode is invisible excep...

vibegirl

There are 2 factory options for alarms. One with a fuel immoboilizer and the other without. My dealer wasn't aware of the fuel immobilizer, even though it is in the brochure!

vibegirl

About the rain...same here. I feel like I am going to slide all over the place and it sucks! I'll check the tire pressure ASAP.

vibegirl

I need chains for the "just in case" situation. We don't get much snow in Vancouver, but sometimes I like to drive into the interior or over to Whistler on the spur of the moment and would like to have some chains just in case

vibegirl

Thanks...I passed the info on to her. Apparently, she has gone to the dealer and they were not helpful.

vibegirl

Just got back! Myself (female 5 "6") and my daughter (6 yrs old) slept in the back on the mattress and it was great! I was able to completly stretch out, and would have had room to spare if I had moved the front seat up further. I agree that a tent is usually the way to go, but at -2 degre...

vibegirl

Just a comment...I would NEVER call any car "pimpin". This word should not be used as slang, the implication is horrible. Pimping is not cool, it is sick, manipulative and illegal. Sorry to vent, but it upsets me how many people use that word so casually.

vibegirl

I think you mean Vibe Babe...

vibegirl

A friend of mine just bought a new Honda Civic. She knows how much I value the ingformation on this forum so we looked for a honda forum for her. There are sooo many and they are sooo techincal for us girls. Anyone know where she can find info easily? Her car is making horrible sounds when she brake...

vibegirl

I need to get chains for my tires soon, and don't know ANYTHING about this. Any recommendations?

vibegirl

Just a reminder...I see lots of talk about Canadian winters...here in Vancouver we rarely get snow, and if we do it is washed away ASAP by the never ending rain!

vibegirl

Looks great!

vibegirl

Yeah, it sucks. A trickle not a spray. But I have never had one before and I love being able to see out hte back as I live in rainy Vancouver!

vibegirl

Sorry to hear about that. I hope she is OK.

vibegirl

Maybe I am naive...can someone describe/define "rally". Sounds like fun!

vibegirl

In my dreams...a VW Westafalia that didn't blow a head every time I drove more than 3 hours! Yep..sold the aircooled for the Vibe.

vibegirl

Going camping this weekend...aaah natural hot springs! Anyways...looks like I will be able to put a kid's single bed foam mattress in the back of my Vibe. Unfortunately, when folded down, the back seats don't meet the front seats. But that gives me room to fold in the extra 1 foot of the mattress do...

vibegirl

I have been there forever, totally empathize! Good luck

vibegirl

My dealer quoted $595 CDN for a system which includes a fuel immobilizer. Paying the extra for that is worth it as having the fuel immobolizer decreases insurance (in BC anyway).

vibegirl

They fixed the rattle ! Apparently the lock chamber thingy was loose. I didn't really get into it with them, I was just happy that it was fixed! I can get the details if you need them though...

vibegirl

I don't know alot about cars...but I had to look at the pic a few times to try to figure out what was so different from the pics already advertised. Also the car needs to look SHINY in my opinion!

vibegirl

Thanks everyone!

vibegirl

Greta ideas! I'll let you know how it went.

vibegirl

Just wanted to let everyone know that I have changed my password from vwgirl to vibegirl!

vibegirl

They found me another though with only 18km. I picked it up on Friday, and am now a pround new owner.

vibegirl

After all this they were unable to trade for it!

vibegirl

I ordered my Vibe 17 weeks ago. I made a deal that if the vehicle did not arrive by Dec 1st, they would provide me with a courtesy car. Needless to say, it did not arrive. As soon as they loaned me the rental car they seemed to work 4 times harder to get me my vehicle. They found one similar to my o...

vibegirl

Is it possible to use the box while bolting in a child seat?

vibegirl

Has anyone else noticed rattles in the doors? I just got my Vibe and hear rattles in 3 doors. it occurs when I go over bum,ps, small or large. It also occurs when I have music on with strong bass, and I am not cranking my music. I am having it looked at on Thursday, and would love to go in with an i...

vibegirl

Ok... I went to put the cargo mat in my Vibe and could not believe that it does not fit in when a child's car seat is bolted in. The safety belt bolts down on the hook in the hatch and this prevents the mat from lying flat ! Has anyone solved this problem? I plan on cutting a hole for it, but am con...

vibegirl

Me too, how annoying! Noticed it on the first day. Have you found a solution?

vibegirl

I saw 4 guys leaving IKEA with a whole load of purchases. I watched them trying to fit it all in a new Mazda P5, it was totally hilarious. I wanted so bad to say "shoulda bought a Vibe", I still regret biting my tongue.

vibegirl

I noticed that some of you are waiting for Vibes in Eastern Canada. There are quite a few satellite, neptune and salsa Vibes on the lots out here. MOst are automatics or fully loaded. Check out gmcanada.com and punch in the postal code V4C 3C6. Not sure if this helps.

vibegirl

Also, the dealer ensured that it was never purchased or leased before and stated that the 500 km was due to a sales guy driving it from one dealer to another. I am also trying to get the warranty to 60,500, apparently there may be a limit to that.

vibegirl

Thanks again! I have ordered this one and will recieve it in 10 days, rather than ????? weeks!

vibegirl

I called GM to ask about this a few months ago and they said the points can oly be used for the purchase of your vehicle. However, a co-worker told me he was told that he could purchase accessories.

vibegirl

Excellent idea about the warranty!Thanks everyone, I think I may go for it so I can ring in to win!!!

vibegirl

Good one!

vibegirl

Thanks, I never thought to ask that!

vibegirl

It looks like my factory order will not be delievered in time for the "ring in to win" special and the 0% financing. My dealer has found an identical car for me (with $1300 more options!), and I could get it within 2 weeks. The dilemma is that the car he found has 500 km (approx 300 miles ...

vibegirl

Mission raceway...I don't know...never done that! But, seems you consider your car a black rat, while I see mine as a black cat... Don't cats eat rats?

vibegirl

I also advise you to call GM. I did and they were very helpful. It also is a bit of ammo at the dealer to have some facts about the card, I have found that most car dealers are ignorant in this area.

vibegirl

Looking for a partner?

vibegirl

Child & Youth Counsellor. Anyone else in the social service field?

vibegirl

Hi engine1, welcome to the forums! Are you the sole owner of a Vibe way out there in Chilliwack? What colour, options....is yours?
