Oil cooler yes, that will be installed almost for sure, but your 09 has considerable more HP and Torque so my minimal 130 well when it was new, will likely be far more shift then you 09 vibe

I have been though the owners manual and find no mention of avoiding Overdrive while towing, other then that is basically says keep it under 1500 and avoid stopping harshly. I love my vibe and it never let me down but I want to haul me and my bros steel horse from north east Wisconsin to central Flo...

I have been having random intermittent cruse issues. When driving usually when the vehicle is load more, such as 4 people and luggage, the cruse light will flicker for like .2 seconds and the cruse will drop. 99% sure it not brake petal/switch related. Most of the times is acts up are when I hit a d...

pretty much the conclusion is If you do a HU and speakers its will be better then M&T but the cost is a hurtle Mounting kit and HU = 200ish front speakers 160, rear speakers 170, custom professionally made box for my angled rear seats 100 then add wiring harness ant adapter bout 650 in parts and...

I didn't take any pics of the HU or cause its just another Hu and the speakers appear stock, and the wiring job under the passenger seat is pulled back and almost invisible on the other hand I have a M&T amp and HU for sale if anyone's interested some of the buttons were wearing off a little but...

What I got there is a custom made 6x9 enclosure with Infinity Kappa, which is bolted to the cargo tracks on the back for the seats. This will defeat the split fold in the rear but you can still fold the seats down. I did not damage any anything in the back it could be put back in a couple hours. I c...

Well I am a technician and I see a lot of suspension and alignment work. First off its harder to help you with out driving the vehicle, but ill try for ya.

I run Mobile One with a Pure One filter for about 5000 miles and it never smells burnt and seems to be more on the clean side then the dirty.....102,000 and no problems yet

well I can tell you from experience now. (1) The amp isn't evenly distributed power The front door receives more then the front tweeter and more then the rear speakers do. Also it is a 6 channel amp not 4. (2) In my case the rear speakers were quieter because, I believe they had aged or worn and les...

I have a component alpine set up in the front and this coming week I will be installing Infinity Kappa 6x9s in a Custom box made to attach to my rear seats, cause those door speaker aint much for bass. I had Infinity Reference 6x9s in my last car and it was plenty of bass with a cheap deck, I was as...

I happened to be a Technician and where i work filters are always changed 100% of the time but I had a friend take his car to a ford dealer and the filter wasn't changed cause the kids who work the lube racks are slackers i know cause i date my filters, and it wasn't changed I would recommend you ma...

I specifically use the soft gloss washes they work better . it takes bit of force to take that antenna off like not having the garage door open the last 6 inches and backing in......snap 170 bucks later

thanks you so much for the diagram i can live with just that answer if no one else knows the others

I have a 2004 Vibe M&T with single disc factory HU. I have some tech questions. The front speakers were so so when i got my vibe i replaced them with a Alpine Component speaker in the factory locations. They sound better then stock. The rear speakers on the other hand play about 1/2 to 2/3's of ...
