Hey yall, new guy here from Texas. I have an 07 Vibe, standard base with moon and tunes monsoon package. This is actually my second vibe, but i like this one better than the auto transmission. I am just smitten with this little car and i want to take care of her as best I can so thanks for lettin me join and im looking forward to learning about this car and helping other folks if i can.

Welcome to the forum Ray!

You know, uhmm, we have a little initiation ritual here: you must post a picture of your Vibe no matter if it's dirty or clean! It is also a good idea to put your location into the signature so someone can hit you up for help (or the other way around).


Glad to have you here!

Welcome to GenVibe Ray :D Color, condition? Probably rust free if from Texas! Gotta love those manual tranny's in these small cars, that's what mine are. What was your first Vibe and why do you no longer have it?

Im having issues posting a pic of my car, but it is silver. My first one was gray and automatic. I just didnt care for the automatic one and we sold it. I was driving an 01 Grand Marquis thats gettin upward of 300k miles and I was looking for something small, standard shift and kinda fun. I happened on my current vibe in houston, she had 112k miles and was very clean so i picked her up. Ive had her almost a year, so far ive put NGK laser cut iridium plugs, knn oil filter with 5w20 mobil 1 synthetic, cabin air filter(knn), i bought drilled and slotted rotors with ceramic pads but havent installed yet. Next friday she is getting rotors, pads, and manual transmission fluid changed. As soon as i get to work(i work overnights) and i have a faster net connection and an actual computer, ill try to get a pic loaded and fix my profile stuff. I work in college station texas at TAMU.

Usually the file is to large. 100KB seems to work well.

One simple way around it is to post them to our Facebook group, (might as well come join us there!) and then link the image from the group to here.

Welcome to genvibe!

There was a recent forum software version update, uploading files (of any size) doesn't seem to be working since then. I IM'd the site admin, I expect he'll get that resolved
