hello to all vibe owners

Post by jeram1985 »

hello to all Vibe owners.I just bought a 06 vibe and I love it. It is gas economical, sporty, roomy, and fast. I pride myself in working on my vehicles as much as I can but I am running into some trouble, I can't find a repair manual for this type of vehicle. Can anyone help. I just tried to change the oil filter and it is a job. I would love to know what else can I do to it to keep it running smooth. By the way the model is 06 and it has 60,000 miles. thanks for all the help I get. JR. [IMG][/IMG]

I pride myself in working on my vehicles as much as I can but I am running into some trouble, I can't find a repair manual for this type of vehicle.There's a repair manual for the '05 - '08 Toyota Matrix available on the matrixowners.com homepage. The Matrix and Vibe are almost identical with obvious sheet metal differences and also different radios and A/C. But most of the repair manual information is directly applicable to the Vibe.Welcome to the family.
