Help with Part No

I am looking for a part number for 2009 Pontiac Vibe 2.4L. It's the hose that connects from engine to air intake. Is that the breather hose?

Mine is cracked. I don't see Autozone has any breather hose for my model. Can someone help me with right replacement?

Re: Hissing sound when RPM > 2000

Does any one have any clue what's causing it? My mechanic said he couldn't find anything wrong. He had replaced the Exhaust Pipe Flange Gasket for fixing a leak after which I started noticing this sound. https://youtube.com/shorts/GKtJdrjsj0c?si=8GGq1pwf54ZqO8RW You have an exhaust leak. The fact t...

Re: Strange sound when RPM > 2000

I also drained and refilled the transmission fluid with Valvoline ATF, which has effectively reduced the hesitation I was experiencing during acceleration.

Re: Strange sound when RPM > 2000

I did buy the right donut gasket myself and changed it. But sound is still there. So something else is causing it. Thinking of checking for vacuum leaks by spraying carb cleaner.

My Engine Air Filter Box clamps are broken and currently held by just one. Will it cause the sound?

Re: Hissing sound when RPM > 2000

The part he mentioned is NIC31639. Is that the right one?
Earlier I had gasoline smell reaching the cabin. But after the work he has done, it has stopped.

Strange sound when RPM > 2000

My 2009 vibe 2.4L is making this weird noise while moving and revving above 2000rpm. If I release the gas, the sound goes away. It doesn't make this noise when stationary. Does any one have any clue what's causing it? My mechanic said he couldn't find anything wrong. He had replaced the Exhaust Pipe...

Wiped arms not resetting

I got my 2009 Vibe 2.4L two months ago with 220k miles. The wiper arm won't reset back when it's turned off. It stays where it's. Is that normal with this vehicle? I was watching some generic YouTube fix for this https://youtu.be/J1KfrDZLLcE?si=uDzMtBj7ywbnuwMI and removed my plastic panel, but I do...

Re: 2009 Vibe base, with Aftermarket double din setup

I noticed there were not many posts and photos of car receiver setups for the 2009-2010 model years, especially as these require a separate 12v red wire to be hooked up to the interior fuse box. It required an unnecessarily long amount of time to try to figure out this step, from reading other pont...
