Re: (blue_can)

OK so get this...we took the Vibe to the dealership on Friday because on Thursday it would not slip into 1st gear at all and they hook it up to the diagnostic machine and no codes came back to say anything was wrong with the tranny or anything else. So the mechanic checks the tranny fluid level - it...

Re: 05 Vibe - Possible Tranny Problems? (lovemyraffe)

Thank you - my BIL who owns an auto repair shop is looking into it also - unfortunately he lives in another state which does me no good - LOL - but at least I know I can get a "base price" from him if it is the Tranny and then show that to the dealer.

Re: 05 Vibe - Possible Tranny Problems? (lovemyraffe)

Yep it was at the normal level - and no discoloration or anything like that. I love my Vibe and I'm not ready to give her up yet, but if it is the tranny it might just be the best thing.

Yeah just checked it - it looks fine. We just had the transmission flushed a few months ago.
