Easy way to convert back and forth between Kilometers/Miles:http://www.runnersweb.com/running/km_miles.html

as of today 1149 purchased 2/19/04 absolutely love it. Later

30,000 kms since February 2003. No problems at all besides the continental tires being terrible in winter. Love the car still.

Bought mine at the end of September 2002 and I just hit 14,000 miles the other day. Right about on par with the past several years of driving miles. I usually have driven a little under 10,000 miles per year consistantly. I drive just about every day at least once, but when I look at the odometer, sometimes I feel like a little old lady! LOL

25k mi and my GT's still going strong. Clutch is still fine. Fialchar, Hope your ride's ready soon.

8,510 miles at 13.5 months 1/25/03 to 3/14/04. Ought to last me a long while at that rate - maybe they can use it for my coffin.

latest mileage update.....im packin 40,000 miles now!! Delivery date was July '02 !

2208km after purchase in December 29th, 03. By the time I am due for an oil change this month but by km... no where close lol.

Almost 17000 since bought new in Sept 02... no problems. Drive it all over California visiting family.

well I'm up to 90,000 KM and still going strong had mine since APR 02had to replace those lovely continental tires but that is about it!

high, but no record breaking pace for me. I'm at about 55k miles (~88K km) after 19 months, that's about 2900 miles (4600 km) per month.some other random statics - for those 55K miles, overall average 36.15 mpg, pumped about 1520 gallons of gas through it which cost me about $2400, about avg $1.58/gallon. estimating overall average speed for those 55K miles of ~45 mph, that's `1200+ hours driving the vibe so far. a GT getting 30 mpg and premium fuel at +10¢/gal would have cost me $3080 for gas(glad they never came up with metric time)edit 1/21/2006 hit 100,000 miles today

just under 22K miles today since 4/19/03.

19,500 in 10 months, average mpg 34.6. Just changed over to Mobile One. I usually put over 250k on a commuting vehicle before it is dead.

I have 16200 miles on mine. I've had mine for less than a year. I got my Vibe in September of last year. I'll prolly be at 17000 by the time September rolls around.Inder Singh

Over 96,000 miles.-Savoy-http://www.iceestudios.com

wow! how's the engine, tranny, etc holding up? any major mechanical probs?

Quote, originally posted by Savoy »Over 96,000 miles.-Savoy-http://www.iceestudios.comHoly mileage batman! I think you maybe the first to go over 100,000! Unless I am mistaken. I have just crossed 20,000 miles. Delivery on August 31 2003, today is August 7 2004. 20k a year, about my average.

I haven't had any major mechanical problems. What I do have is my driver and passenger power windows are scratching my tint, of course the paint problems, and the oxygen sensor on my vibe needs to be changed. Only thing with the oxygen sensor is that the vibe has 2(!) so there seems to be no way to tell which one to change without hooking it up to that expensive diagnostics machine. Other than that...all is well.

The second sensor is just to monitor the function of the cat. If it was toasted, the code would read differently, e.g."defective converter".

I have 15,100 had the vibe since Nov 03.

2 months, 2 days, 2250 miles, 150 million smiles. . .love this car

I've had mine for 2 years and 1 day and I have only put about 29,000 km on it.

Well, that could mean that the second sensor is malfunctioning (fairly cheap to fix) or that the cat is indeed on its way out. (not so cheap, but should be covered under the emissions warranty.)

(not so cheap, but should be covered under the emissions warranty.)I just had a bad dream that my car was accelerating hard while I was braking repeatedly...made me do a 180 on a busy highway...and on top of that my driver's side front tire went flat! I'm pretty sure that it's the second sensor...the problem I'm having is choosing which one is the second sensor. I work a LOT(evident by all the miles I have) and to put it on that diagnostic machine just for the dealership to point out to me the part number I need seems like overkill. However...if I can't figure another way i'm going to have to take off a few times to get it done. I apologize for hijacking the thread and thanks, Madbill, for your help.

The O2 sensor that monitors the condition of the cat is the one downstream of it, i.e. furthest from the engine. BTW, some auto parts/repair stores will read and explain codes for free...

I actually had the codes read by over three different auto parts and repair stores and none of them could explain which one needed to be replaced.

Well, isn't that a pain! On GM pick ups, the code tells which of the four O2 sensors is the problem; don't know why they wouldn't on the Vibe. However, I believe they are both the same p.n. so if the repair facility flipped a coin and got it wrong, the worst would be a few minutes more labour to switch the new sensor to the other location.

4 month's old 3,200 miles

12 months old and 30,000 miles

Picked it up in April 2003 with just under 500 miles and I am at 12,500 right now.

Resurrecting an old thread...Just hit 50,000 overall troublefree miles (now at 50,200 miles) this past weekend. Bought the Vibe in 07/2002 (so about 3 yrs, 2 months).

22,000 on my 2004

just over 54k on my 04vibe

had 125 miles on it when I bought it in August, now it's at 1,400 miles.

Somewhere close to 58,000 miles. It may have gone over, not sure - I don't pay any attention to that anymore. I just keep the trip on the display all the time.

My 03 will roll 77k at lunch time. I replaced the tires at 35k and the Kelly Navigator Gold tires look great at 42k. I keep planning to change coolant, AT fluid, and replace broken fog lights.

How do you manage to only have 10,000 miles and have a 2003 model?I have a 2004 and so far already have 32,500 something miles! Edit: OK never mind... I guess that was old post I read when you HAD 10,000 miles. LOL
