Re: How many miles on your Vibes?

I'm at a shade over 211k miles on an 04 GT. Bought it in 2006 with about 25k miles on it. Been a GREAT car. No sign of slowing down.

Re: help with 2004 RH door handle with Keyhole replacement

I just did this yesterday, also the front passenger side handle of an 04. I found this video helpful, though as someone said, you probably wouldnt even have to remove the door panel. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJJtbicAgEU&feature=BFa&list=FLWBqRoTsHuwrkmh-8lZEJnQ" onclick="wind...

Re: AC blower down on power, surges and dies (djkeev)

The connector looks and feels tight. I have read about the resistor failing. Is it possible that instead of totally failing and running on speed 4 all the time mine has failed in reverse and is running on speed 1 or 2 most of the time? If that is electrically impossible you will have to forgive my i...

Ive got an 04 GT with about 154,000 miles, original clutch and spark plugs (though they will be changed soon). Runs like a top, gets 30 on the highway. I change oil every 3,000 and changed the blower motor one time, other than that no issues.

AC blower down on power, surges and dies

I have an 04 Vibe GT. My ac blower is blowing very irregularly. Sometimes it blows hard, sometimes not, it surges and decreases a lot. Most of the time it blows very softly, too softly for the fan setting the switch indicates. The swith seems to work in the sense that it does decrease power from hi,...

Re: Will Infinity Kappa 3way 6.5 inch fit? (Vibr8tr)

I never said it would give me a "system." (I think you were kidding)I simply would like a clearer sound and more power than the stock paper crap speakers. Im not looking to spend a fortune on my daily driver.

Re: (Jahntassa)

OK, so I admit to knowing very little about car audio and I just thought I could put them in and connect the wires. Not so? (Dumb question?)In any case, what would you guys recommend as an alternative speaker. I chose these because they sound good in my Trans Am and I have a hook up on price so they...

Re: carguyjohn350 - 2004 Vibe GT (VforVIBE)

I still have the Trans Am, it is now a project/weekend car. It was too costly to drive as much as I do in Houston traffic.
