09 Vibe GT Struts

Post by Ace Barker »

I have a 09 Vibe GT and need to buy new struts. Will the VIN tell me if I have FE2 or FE3 suspension? If so is there a site I can check? I have looked but haven't found anything down to that granularity of suspension type. GM normally puts the RPO codes in the glove box but on the Vibe I don't see it. Anyone know where this is on the car?

I typically replace everything with factory parts and just want to order the right thing.

Thanks

Both our 2009 Vibe GTs have RPO stickers in the gloveboxes...

This is a good site to check RPO codes and such.

Thanks for the reply. My daughter needed a glove box clean out and with a black door and grey sticker it was hard to see. It has FE3. Will order the struts now.

Thanks
