New Vibe Owner 2012
I recently purchased a 2010 Vibe 1.8L! I just have a couple of questions I hope you guys can answer for me. When I am on the Highway the front end shakes/vibrates enough to feel it and on occasion (not every start like once every 10 starts) when I start my vehicle it makes a loud noise (kind of sounds like when you try starting a vehicle when its already started). Has anyone else ever had these problems? Also, does anyone know what size tires originally come on a 2010 Vibe?

sounds like you need to balance your wheels. welcome to the forum!
not sure about the starter issue but my start up on my 06 has always been kinda loud.

Welcome to GenVibe! If I'm not mistaken, the factory tire size on the 2009-2010 1.8L Bases is 205/55/16. Post some pictures of your Vibe when you get a chance

Ive been trying to upload a picture, but it is not allowing me to. The first one I tried said it was to large, 2nd one states the extension bmp is not allowed.

Upload your pictures to PhotoBucket, Flickr, etc. then just use the [ img ] [ / img ] tags (without spaces) around the URLqueensoppe wrote:Ive been trying to upload a picture, but it is not allowing me to. The first one I tried said it was to large, 2nd one states the extension bmp is not allowed.
