Will the day time lights still work at night
My Jeep Patriot 2011 FWD has some squeaking noises in the suspension, and it needs front brake pads. The mechanic charges $430 to replace the 2 upper control arms and the 2 lower control arms in the rear, two front brake pads, and for alignment and balancing. Is the price correct?
@@MikeMassi357 yeah $430 seems about the right price for all that work.
Great Video Buddy, I am considering one of these just to go to work in and run around in and keep mileage off my good car. I am looking for one now. THANKS !!!!
You add oil to the filter??
Yes so the engine doesn’t run dry on startup
Great video. I'm considering buying one. Looks great
I don’t know about anyone else but I like this car a lot.
I love this model.
I rebuilt the suspension front and rear on my 2008 Element a couple of years ago. Just noting you have all the right tools to do the job. As a suggestion, start soaking the nuts/bolts with your favorite penetrating oil a couple of times a few days before tackling the job. Yeah, I had to cut the sway bar links too to get the control arm off. To others contemplating this job, order the sway bar links when you order your new control arms and save yourself some time and trouble. Good job and well done. Thank you for posting!
I was told this is a teams without band adjustment for reverse. Gasket on valve body issue. ?
You were saying can clearly hear the sound but I was trying to, but couldn't do it over the music
Any reason/advices as to why you didn't want to remove both drive shafts from the front diff?
Thank you so much.!! Now I know what to expect and what I need. I appreciate you.
a few months ago I got a 2007 vibe on a city auction. it used to be the fire chief's car. only had 27k on it...for real....I even confirmed the mileage with the city garage. paid about $7k with auction fees. A little over KBB value, but where can you find a 27k car for $7k these days? Love it so far. I'm 6'4" and it's one of the few cars I can get in and out without banging my head on the doorway. The one drawback is the clearcoat was peeling badly on the hood and the roof and the paint was faded from sitting outside. If I get motivated, I'll just have the clearcoat re-done and live with a little ugly. The Vibes were made in California and the Matrix in Canada, but that's the only significant difference. The worst year for Vibe/matrix/corolla was 2009 per carcomplaints.com...significant oil burning.
I changed all 4 plugs and coils with a p0304 code and I'm still getting the code
@@SamuelRobinson-p4y the next common thing you want to check is the coils
@randomtallguyvlogs6756 I replaced the coils and plugs and now the fuel injectors...problem still.persists
@randomtallguyvlogs6756 car has minimal performance difference...don't feel a shudder or anything while driving that would indicate a misfire. This is odd. I checked the fuel injectors and confirmed they're all misting fine and in proper sequence. No dirt or moisture around the manifold gaskets either...very odd...I'm hoping it isn't the pcm
Nobody talks about structural frame reinforcement options such as bumper chrome add on or a hitch for the back which makes it a less formidable car to get totaled!
I love your video I use it to help me do a bunch on my Jeep, I wish you can make one on doing the rack and pinion and the bushings on the transfer case...tia
Thanks for letting us know what it sounds like 👍🏻
TIMING BELT REPLACEMENT major factor. imo but supposedly the Vibe has cHAIN not a belt ., so Im thinking it may give longer life
Did you have adjust the valves or just torque and go?
My grandma owns this car but she gave it to my older brother for Christmas
Think that was the clearest, most precise how to for this car ive seen! thanks
Thank you
Does the clock spring assist in returning the key fully My horn works with motor off , if you start it up and release the key all the Accessories work but the horn if you tilt the key just slightly reaward the horn works
Bc its a toyota without having to pay toyota prices
Did you do a video on a Pontiac Vibe Oil & filter Change yet?
Just had my 98’ ranger’s engine flood with coolant! This video is giving me the confidence to do my own
Just purchased a 2006 Vibe 2 weeks ago. The cluch is brand new (Previous owner) but i do not know if he used GL4 75 W? I feel I should change anyway to be sure its GL4.
I have a Ford Ranger 1993 v6 3.0L 4x4 XLT, does this engine requires a specific head gasket? I read that a RWD needs a left and right head gasket, and a FWD it does not matter which way is installed, meaning the two smaller coolant slots on both ends are opened. Is this accurate? Any information is appreciated. Thank you
Saturns are GR8 I have an 07 ion redline comp ppl are always asking wut it is 😂
Fuel line puller❤ thank you🎉
Bought one new in 2006 after high school, just as Pontiac was going under. Im 38 now lol. Have a nice house and good job, family etc. Still drive the car everyday. Cheap on fuel, cheap on insurance, super functional. Decent ground clearance for getting into job sites. Few brake jobs and one wheel bearing, couple batteries. Changed the oil at 5000km
8:38 is when he actually talks about what you're here for.
Helped a lot! Good video
What size mattress the width ?
What was the size of the mattress??? I’m trying to use the same size you have 😊
Great video bro
Hey what’s the link to the mattress that you bought
What’s the link to the mattress ?
I'm still driving and loving my 2003 AWD Pontiac Vibe. It has been an awesome, extremely reliable car. Never had to have ANY work done on it aside from regular maintenance until this past summer when it lost a heat shield and then started having the dreaded ABS & brake lights warnings due to the front wheels' speed sensors going bad. I think Im finally ready to let the car go now since I don't really want to put more money into a 21 year old car. Of course, I just bought new tires for it last year, and they only have 3,000 miles on them, so IDK. It really is a great car ... wish they still made them. Loved buying a Toyota for a GM price.
Thanks bro, just completed the waterpump in my 3.7 jeep cherokee. This was so helpful 👌🏾
Do you have a link for those transmission crusher washers?
That's sad anyone would say "ugly." These cars are incredibly reliable, safe and trustworthy. If you see a Saturn on the road, consider yourself graced by good luck for passing by it :)
my concern about this car is getting parts, especially body parts. Are they available or do you have to got to junk yards? Will gm dealers be able to service them with original parts or will toyota? Any owners care to share their experience?
Don't own one, since Pontiac has been gone for 15 years, body parts, probably junk yards. As for service, New GM said they would still service discontinued makes and models, like Pontiac, or you could go to Toyota, since the bulk of the mechanicals are Toyota.
Bought my 2004 Vibe GT 4 uears ago with only 86k miles for 4 Grand. At 142k so far, still purrs like the day i bought her. Ill get 200-250k EASILY outta this bitch lol
Thank you! Im going to change my fluid soon and this is very helpful
What product did u use on the faded bumper?
Use a heat gun. Thank me later
Would've been the time to do the line too.
Helpful video with clear instructions. Also appreciate the headlight coating tip.
On a 1996, if you have TPS code P0123 and a new TPS doesn't fix it, unplug the horn relay. If that clears the TPS code, replace the clock spring. It's a jeep thing 😂
I bought a 2009 with only 57k miles from some old lady. So far so good. Only complaint is that I wished it was awd version.
