Re: Borbet or Refurbished wheels? [pao] by imoldfella

Ok, hopefully the final chapter to the saga.
 
The tire guy said "never saw that before...".
 
The rear drum brakes had factory star clips that aren't necessary for driving, but the factory (steel) wheels are formed to clear the clips. This all just apparently reduces cost of manufacturing. Once they removed the clips the Borbet wheels fit and worked fine.
 
So if you have a Malibu LS with drum brakes and you buy aftermarket wheels, make sure you tell the tire guy to remove the star clips before putting on the wheel.

I belive someone made a BIG mistake right from the start! There is no way Chevrolet is going to replace a lighted vanity mirror with a replacement visor without lights. That is just utterly rediculus. You need to follow up with customer service either at the dealership and/or the 1-800 number in the owners manuel.It MUST be a mistake. Goodluck and don't let them get away with this. Please post back and let us know what happens.

I am a fairly recent Malibu owner, and I have a beautiful bronze '02. I am looking to make some mods to the car and was wondering what you all could suggest.

  Chevrolet dealership in Fayetteville, NC told me that they had never heard of the shaking headlight problem before. However, they fixed it on my '06 Malibu about 4 months ago. So, don't let anyone tell you that it can't be done!

how do you change it though. I cannot get the arm off but can remove the rubber blade. Is it that difficult? I am mechanically inclined but have found this very puzzling. Chevy has made this to difficult.
