GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

Hello vibe community I am brand new to the forum gig but I love reading the posts as they are most helpful at times but I am now seeking out some info that may be on here somewhere but just haven't found it yet, I had recently purchased an '03' vibe GT with the 1.8 l vvtl-i engine & the c60 6speed man. trans that I have to replace the clutch in but that's not my concern. I have been searching the web looking for a engine service manual for this thing because the car has a few miles on it & I'm going to just pull the engine & trans together to do service & repairs needed and I would like to check all of the engine components for spec & recondition or rebuild if necessary, So I guess my point question is does anyone out there know where I can find a service manual for this engine and possibly suggestions on the best place to get rebuild parts from??? thanks in advance....

Welcome to genvibe

The GM factory service manuals are available from a company named Helm, they're pricey, but you might find a set on ebay sometimes. There is a PDF version of the Toyota Matrix factory service manual on line somewhere unofficial, and since's the Vibe is almost completely a clone of the Matrix, the engine service parts of that all apply to your Vibe.

For parts, there's a variety of online GM and Toyota parts places, and sites like rockauto. If you are interested in performance upgrades and such, places like monkey wrench racing might be useful.
