I hate to admit it but of all my cars my 2005 Vibe AWD is ignored and lives a rough life. We bought it new and now has 115,000 Mi on it. It is my wifes daily driver. I change the oil every 3000 miles but ignored the transmission, transfer case and rear differential. The differential has been repaired, the ABS gave us a problem with a pump and sensors and the radio display went out. All has been fixed and other than that it has been a decent car.Funny, I baby my other cars, don't know why I don't mess with the Vibe but I need to catch the maintenance up. Good to know there are some folks that give great advice.

It's like a women, you need to give it some TLC every once and awhile to keep her happy. If not you'll be either divorced or broke down on the side of the road.

Finally got around to doing some TLC. I changed the tranny fluid, transfer case oil, rear end oil and engine oil/filter, now she just needs some new tires.

What did you use to loosen the drain and fill plugs?
