#49 of 52 Re: RE 09 Quiet Tires [newvibebuyer] by CapeCod Feb 28, 2009 (6:50 pm)
Replying to: newvibebuyer (Feb 28, 2009 4:23 pm) 09 Vibe is definitely quieter than 03. I might try a wind deflector for my 03 moonroof to see if that helps. I was surprised you found the RS-As quiet. I drove an 09 and thought the tires roared... My guess is the tires do better on some pavements... worse on other pavements. My next car will likely be a Certified CR-V... We now own 2 "orphaned" brands... Olds & Pontiac!

Why do you say that Pontiac is orphaned? I haven't heard anything about GM not making Pontiacs unless you are assuming GM is going under.   On the '09 you drove - was it the base model (1.8 L) or one of the upper models with wider tires? Replies to this message: loosenut (Mar 02, 2009 7:49 pm)

Replying to: newvibebuyer (Feb 28, 2009 8:39 pm) time to wake up and smell the exaust fumes...with the way the exec's at "general malfunction" run things,and IF they survive this slower market-pontiac,and especially the "collage" of parts that come together to make a really nice car that the VIBE is,with it's toyota driveline and g.m. body.. -while the final product is a pretty good one,and allowing the "buy american" croud the ability to get the dependability of a toyota,while wearing a "made in america,well-final assembly in america" badge,pontiac ain't got mutch left to distinguish itself from buick or chevy..rember the toy-let??-80's model sold under the chevy brand,as a "nova" a 4 door econo-box with a 1.5 or 2 liter toyota motor..they ran good,just not verry exciting-unlike the vibe.. --vibe gt,with some tweaking,COULD run with subaru's wrx..,but i dunno..gm's treading water right now..i'd like to see the vibe platform survive with a hybrid ,or hydrogen cell, or SOMETHING more future-thinking,rather than regressing to the same stuff they've been shoving down our throats for the last twenty-some years..give us something NEW to get excited about,and american car buyers might start buying again!!

I was wondering... How do I get to the rear wheel bearings so I can check them and grease them?   Thanks
