I was looking to get an HHR 4 years ago but no leg room or head room. There was an 07 Vibe next to it and lots of head room and leg room. I still have the Vibe and am glad the HHR didnt fit. I'm 6'1" and 325lbs......

Quote, originally posted by lemay.08 Â»As for studded snow tires, it has been banned in QuÃƒÂ©bec more than a decade ago because it was damaging the roads. So let say that it's not an option...I don't mean to brag or anything but I don't think that my driving skill is the problem here. LOL x 100.......

Is there a universal antenna that will work for XM/Sirius and FM? A guy told me his 2009 Matrix had one but I doubt it.

nerka

My 07 auto 1.8 gets 36mpg (thats 30 US) with the A/C on and I have a lead foot. You should average well over 30 seeing you are concerned about it.

nerka

I dunno how you do it Star, but i'm at 7.8/100km, I drive with no abandon and use the A/C when its 20*C and 95% non highway. 1.8 auto. Beats my old Silverado at 18mpg by a tad.....

nerka

My last tank...36 mpg Imperial and 31.1 mpg US. Not too shabby.

Seems to suit me fine as i'm 6' 1" and 300lbs .....auto tranny. I have my seat down as far as it goes and have lots of head room. The only thing I dont like is the steering wheel positioning when turning. Can't adjust it to my liking.

Where did you get the -10C in Chilliwack? Not from me. It was a 30+C when it happened. Also we have government insurance here. Its called ICBC.

nerka

In that link change from US gallons to UK gallons. Same as Canadian gallons. Big difference.Try this. When your low fuel light comes on fill it up. Keep track of how many liters it took and turn your odometer to zero. When the low fuel light comes on again go fill it up again. Write down what the od...

According to my local GM dealership they have never heard of any recall and my 07 1.8 Vibe is not on any recall list. WTH is going on?

nerka

So whats the deal here, its September...has anyone got a recall notice yet? How does this work with us that have bought used between 05 and 08?

nerka

I was a little disappointed at the A/C not being cold enough so i'll try it without the filter.So SD, you have no A/C in your Vibe? Must get hotter than hades in Vernon....I'm in Chilliwack and anything over 25*C gets A/C.
