Swapping 09-10 Engine and Transmission into 06 Vibe
Posted: Fri Jul 03, 2026 1:42 pm
My Vibe's getting up there (20 years old and 237k miles) and it might need a new engine and transmission eventually (it's running great right now). Instead of rebuilding or replacing with the same 1.8L engine and 4 speed transmission it has now, I was wondering if it's possible to upgrade to the newer, larger (2.4L?) 2009-2010 engine and 5 speed automatic.
Has it ever been tried? What were the results?
Why not just get a newer Vibe? Simple: I like the looks of the 03-08 models better.
