The -E-ngine -C-ontrol -M-odule, or ECM recorded the vehicle mileage along with the odometer. The EMC mileage can be read by a scan tool at most dealerships or repair shops with the proper equipment. It is possible for the two mileages to differ slightly, but a large variance may indicate a faulty odometer, or possibly odometer tampering.

If and when it breaks...seriously. There is no need to service or replace it unless there is reason to. All you need to do is keep up on the oil changes and oil level.

The 2005 Pontiac Vibe takes a 21" drivers side, 18" passenger side and a fairly specialized 11" rear wiper that is difficult to find in the stores. See sources and related links below for more information. Since there are currently over 22 different wiper arm attachments, do not buy wipers just by length only - be sure to lookup exact wiper blade part numbers by vehicle make, model and year for the brand wiper you decide to purchase. This ensures correct length AND correct attachment.

Yes! After only 87,000km and at least 12 oil changes my engine quit on me. I had the car towed to the local GM dealer, only to find out a few days later that the engine had sludge in both the upper and lower engine. I was also advised that GM would not warranty the engine because of the sludge. I bought this car thinking it would be much better than the usual GM product, because of the Toyota engine...but was I wrong! I am presently compliling several complaints from Toyota and Pontiac owners about this problem. It seems that Toyota have have had engine design flaws that contributed to the sludge problem (engine running to hot, oil filter positionning, etc..). I have most of my maintenance records and still GM does not want to cover the motor on warranty. If you have any other information about this problem, could you forward the info?

--------

I had the valve cover off mine at 100K miles, definitely no sludge problem in there. Also, among the Vibers at forums.genvibe.com, there have not been any reported sludge problems

Is it possible to narrow down the circuit? There are quite a few.

i have personally worked on a 92 3800se and rebuilt the wiring harness. the best place i could figure to get wire schematics is to bug the guys at the local Pontiac dealers body shop. it took 20 min of hassling but i managed to get print outs of the schematics. the following are the various harnesses.

-body wire harness

-dash harness

i should note that those are the main harnesses. however they are sub classified as everything from power locks/windows, engine compartment harness, instrument harness, ect....

I found this post via genvibe.com, it worked for me on my 07 Vibe:

This will turn off the 1 minute beep if the car is running and either the passenger or the driver takes off their seat belt. Get in the car and turn the key to on (don't start the car,) then change the odometer to display "odo" and not trip A or B. Turn the key off. Turn the key back to on. Within six seconds of doing this, press and hold the odometer button. Do so for 10 seconds. Then, while still holding the button, buckle up, edit: then unbuckle. The "odo" display should then change to say "b-on." let go of the odo button to get it to read "b-off." Then wait for the display to change back to the odometer. That's it, you're done. The car will still beep right when you turn it on for 3 seconds if you don't have a seatbelt, but the dash light will continue flashing till buckled up. It won't beep if you or your passenger unbuckles for a moment. Salvation!

I do not know how much it would cost to have a factory sunroof installed by a dealer, but I expect it would be a lot more than a a respectable body shop would charge to install an aftermarket one

No !!! at least 06 and before, I recommend using Shell gasoline. In my region it is a few cents more than the competetors, but I get about 25 mpg city with Shell v-power 93 oct, on the base model, though it is not suggested to use premium fuel on the base engine, I find the 93 oct fuel helps quiet engine operation, (the higher the octane the less chance of spark knock, especially with a high reving motor like the Toyota 1.8!) If you can't stand to pay the extra 20 or so per gallon, I recommend at least use 89 oct. With others, BP(Amoco), Mobil, Marathon, I only was able to get 21 or 22 (tops) MPG (City) personally I do not recommend Speedway and Clark, they may be cheaper but the quality is sub-par.

The Generation Vibe Forum has the answer you are looking for (The same question I was looking for too). Here is the website that I found your answer http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=785. The discussion talks about removing the panels to replace the speakers. Hope this helps.

The Vibe's odometer only goes to 299,999. Anything over that you will not be able to verify the mileage.

i have a 2005 vibe base model, with 5 speed manual transmission. i drive it about

23,000 miles per year (mostly highway) and it now has 102,000 miles. only problem

i have had was the fuel pump went out at 63,000 miles. i change oil evey 5,000 miles.

runs just fine.

I have a 2003 1.8l GT that we ordered new while stationed in Germany. This car was "driven" like a car was made to "European style" by both my wife an myself. I am ashamed I've neglected this car as far a routine maint. is concerned and w/ over 102k it just keeps going. I've told the kids they are each getting a used one to go off to collage w/!

Go to www.genvibe.com for all of your answers!!!

This will turn off the beep but the light will still blink.

1) Turn the Car 'ON', but do not start the engine (Leave your foot off the brake). Cycle your trip reset knob until it reads ODO. Turn the ignition back off. Wait a couple of seconds. 2) Make sure seat belt is not fastened 3) Turn the ignition back on, do not start the car (Leave you foot off the break) As soon as you see everything light up, press and hold the trip reset knob and do a long 12 second count. 4) Keep your finger on the trip reset knob. Fasten your seat belt, as soon as you fasten your seat belt, you should see the ODO display go from XXXX miles to "b-on". At that time take your finger off the trip reset knob and press it again. It should cycle to "b-off". You should be all set and turn the ignition off and unfasten your seat belt.

The best place to start with this is Advantages...

A Toyota vehicle wrapped in a General Motors label.

A four cylinder motor uses less gas.

Lots of cargo space

stylish

Small Exterior

Large roomy interior

Insurance compaies classify it (even the AWD) As a Station Wagon

Has its own owners club Ok now on to the disadvantages.... The pick up on the four is a little iffy...

it doesn't have a camping package like its larger sibling Aztec.
