Quote, originally posted by HawaiiPontiacLover Â» Just wondering how long it took to get your coupon?According to the website info, it takes about 3-4 weeks to get the coupon. My friend rec'd hers in less than 4 weeks. It's shipped standard mail rather than first class so it might take a bit longer ...

Thanks for the reply. It must be leaking into the body panels somewhere. I don't see any leaks in the engine compartment, hood, or around the hatch where the rear spray is located. I'm not thrilled about the dealership disassembling my car. I doubt they are excited about this either. Now I'm worried...

The dealership replaced the reservoir, but the system still leaks. I took it in yesterday so they could fill & mark the fluid level and returned this morning to show them that the level has dropped about an inch in the fill tube in 24 hours.This is a warranty issue that the dealership should rep...

AGAIN â€¦ Iâ€™m not suggesting that anyone else take their tires to max sidewall psi. This is what I have chosen for the tires on my Vibe. The San Jose police dept has been running their patrol car tires at 44 psi [max sidewall] since 1999 because safety & handling is improved at that pressure i...

Quote, originally posted by jake75 Â» I know that over inflation is not recommended for tire wear and handling reasons. My question is whether a minor overinflation to 34 psi would be an issue.

This may not be a popular answer, but I give my dogs raw chicken wings 2-3 times a week and that keeps their teeth clean. I adopted an 8 year old shepherd with really bad breath. That was the first time my vet suggested a dental. The raw wings cleaned up his mouth in a few weeks. No dentals for any ...

I hadn't heard of this before, but am not surprised. With the right frequency, the bad guys can open your garage door to burglarize your house. They can capture your phone signal and clone it to run up your minutes. They can also unlock & get into your car without setting off the alarm or breaki...

The Vibe has a timing chain which generally requires no maintenance and doesn't need to be changed. My last vehicle had a timing chain & ran well for 15 yrs without any problem.

I'll probably debadge my 07 Vibe soon. I'm not ashamed of what I drive. It's just a pain to get the wax off around the badges. I'm also a little annoyed with the pink arrowhead on the back.

2009 Vibe, 'Trix, & "Rolla all have the same mpg. The ads have the mpg for hwy in a manual. You must have ordered an auto transmission. Autos get lower mpg across the board.The Focus is rrated 24/35. In Europe they can get a diesel Focus that is rated 42 mpg hwy. We will never see that car ...

I've only had my '07 Vibe 5 months, but the car was made over a year ago and the rear wiper blade was is bad condition and needed to be replaced after a year in the Florida sun. Windscreen wipers weren't great either. I'm grateful that you guys suggested getting a longer blade for the back & tri...

Quote, originally posted by K-NINE Â» I've had my Vibe for almost two years and never knew that was there. Mine's always covered by the mat. Thanks for admitting this. I don't feel so bad that it took me over 4 months to find that compartment. Unfortunately, no hidden cargo cover for me.

So sorry to read the news. I hope that your pup is okay. The parvo virus is in the environment. She could have picked it up while walking in the park, pet store, or even at her last vet visit.

Quote, originally posted by Burns1210 » haven't read over the warranty info, am I allowed to change the oil myself? I've never had a warranty before...Yes, you may change the oil yourself. Keep the receipt for the purchase of the oil & filter.

For almost 20 yrs I drove a small truck [S-10 & Sonoma]. Several times I borrowed a Civic & felt like my backside was going to scrape the pavement. I don't feel like that in the Vibe. I really like this car and I'm getting much higher mpg.Go for a test drive!

stealth

Yes, I'm working on this already. On a recent hwy trip I went from 32 mpg to 37 mpg just by slowing to 65 mph [70 mph limit] and pressing the tires to the sidewall max.Nikki

Viva, I have unpainted cladding. In the 3 mos I've had this car I've noticed a lot of Vibes & Matrixes [Matrices?] in the 'hood & when driving around town. Looking closely at the background in your garage pics, I don't think we live in the same neighborhood even tho we are probably close.Nikki

Thanks for the welcome everyone! VivaVibe ... could you be the grey Vibe I've seen around? Are we neighbors? LOL

Thanks for the clarificatione. When I bought the car I wasn't concerned about what it was called. Now I look like a goof! Oh well. My dogs are black and you can't see them we walk at night. For years I've been telling the neighbors the dogs are in "stealth mode" [I live near a military air...
