I have Vibe AWD 2006. Can't find some suspension parts from 2005 year model. I think that all suspension parts from 2002 year model may be replace for 2006 year model. Is it true or not? Can you help me with it?
The AWD suspension is different than the base... Althought they look the same, there are differences... as for years, it shouldn't matter the year, just as long as it's a AWD... you can also use the Toyota Matrix's suspension, but again, it needs to be AWD.

You rang???The front suspension can be used from a '03-'08 FWD Vibe or MatrixThe AWD has an independent rear suspension while the 2WD does not.The rear suspension can only be used from a '03-'06 AWD Vibe or MatrixIf you find an '02 Vibe please let us know and take pics!!!

In USA you use another way for checking date of production than we are here. You use model year, but we use date of production which you can see on sticker on the driver side on body.For example, Vibe'03 can be produced in October 2002. For you it's Vibe'03 but for us it's Vibe'02 because in my country we use calendar year which start January, 01 and finish December, 31. And it's very important thing because when we are import cars we must pay customs duties and they depend from year of production. And our customs staff check not Title - they check stickers on the body, VIN number etc.

My vibe is damaged. I bought it from USA on Copart auction. Now he on service. When they will finish - I will make pictures and posting. By the way, it's not my Vibe. I bought it for my wife My personal car is Mitsubishi Lancer X'08 But I am here because in Belarus only 11 Vibes AWD for 10 mln people and I need information about this car.
