He IS very good at dwelling nearly his screen name. He is been taking good care of us given that the beginning of [Vibe] times.
I am unable to localize the seem--it fills the cabin with no discernible path. Also, I can not notify if I am experience the vibration in the steering wheel or not.
I had an identical practical experience six months in the past BUT mine was much more definitive into the drivetrain. Not specific which aspect was the perpetrator, for the price of a second CV axle I made a decision to have BOTH replaced. It paid off and was back again to easy driving. It's possible you'll want to change another aspect now? Allow us to understand how this saga pans out
And Once i have it's been reasonably easy to work on far too--*Plenty* of area to work with under the hood compared to loads of smaller cars and trucks.
So should you need to substitute the radio with another GM equivalent one particular, be certain it arrived from the a Vibe (or an early matrix)
Re: 2009 Pontiac Vibe with reoccuring small/tough idle (together with other signs and symptoms) Estimate Submit by jolt » Sat Jul 22, 2017 11:30 pm Without codes, the ECM Assume every factor is regular so that sort of rules out a misfire within the ignition system for now. The throttle plate controls the idle velocity. The 2008 and more mature Vibes Have a very ISC valve (Idle Speed Manage) for idle Manage but the 2009 and up do not. The throttle plate is opened and shut by a electrical sign from the ECM. Managing the idle is completed by three areas; the ECM, the wiring amongst the ECM and throttle human body, the throttle entire body itself. You must Examine the 6 wires (if my memory services me appropriate) from your ECM towards the throttle system.
Absolutely Sure! I'd a failing voltage regulator/alternator in a Ford Windstar and it caused intermittent idle challenges. there were other challenges, like dashboard going haywire and so forth.
Dealer stated the motor is poor and propose changing it without having even more elaboration. Not ready to let it die that quick, ran a compression take a look at on it and found about equivalent very low compression in adjacent cylinders.
Following restarting yesterday it threw a P0340 code connected to the camshaft situation sensor circuit. I erased it before beginning this morning. At lunchtime it did not restart even though warm but it surely did not induce a code.
Finally, VibeCash is among the worst apps with regard to customer support and borrower harassment concerns—a few of the brokers are generally quite impolite. Normally, it’s an okay app to borrow from.
This absolutely is not really what I have knowledgeable with my 2009 GT as I hardly ever utilize the A/C, even though It is really definitely incredibly hot out and the codes I've experienced do no match those mentioned within the TSB. Excellent data Nevertheless. Many thanks for publishing it !

I had considered this also. It may well really well be that, but my brother had disconnected my battery only to clean it and the vehicle didn't transform its minimal idle in any respect. This is why I'm pondering it one-way links for the throttle body. I am no pro by any means even though lol
I had actually Enable go of The crucial element along with the ignition continued to show in excess of then it started out. Following that rough begin the vehicle is currently idling low in reverse and After i'm stopped in generate. It's significantly less Repeated than it was but it really's even now there. The poor acceleration has here continued all through all this, it never ever fixed with nearly anything that we did to the car. I'm in a loss of what to try subsequent. I've known as quite a few mechanics and so they flat out refused to even think about the vehicle.
