![]() Otherwise, the dealer is a crook/thief, he/she is so-caring and friendly when you are buying the vehicle, stop back the next day with a problem and you have just become a victim. When purchasing any kind of warranty on a vehicle make SURE it will come with a LOANER policy, the latter is positive assurance the dealer is on the level and caring! Remember, warranty work at a dealership is slow, the latter mechanics place ALL paying customers before warranty work! Sure, the warranty is provided, but who can be without their vehicle for a week? The majority of manufacturers continue to keep the manual transmission alive as a simple nostalgic interlude. Sadly, most newer vehicle cannot withstand the purist that desires to drive a 5-6 speed as intended! Today, we have to be very careful when purchasing a manual/clutch vehicle. The above is highlighted throughout this thread, the clutch is weak and when it fails at 30K the owner has had his/her fill it is then traded-in etc. I noticed many Vibe GTs are traded in with only 30K miles on the odometer, one has to ask why? In the event the above cannot be performed on a regular basis what good is having it? The above includes down shifting around corners and when slowing down to stop. I agree the Vibe GT manual setup is weak, a stick should be designed with the attitude that the driver is going to rip through the gears. Needless to say the concept of flat shifting even in the 70s was very subjective since a poor shift would spew many components within the gearbox a no-no! It doesnt matter which one, the gaskets are the same. I dont know what the transmission number it is. You want the gasket for the 18-bolt pan which is for the 1zz/Base/AWD motor. The above was used in the 70s drag race days where the majority of the components were american steel and very strong/durable. Re: Location of transmission number /if it exists (LMK9232) The 19-bolt pan is for the 2zz/GT motor. The latter is the worst possible lunk head idea you can perform on a relatively cheap clutch and drive-train.Įxecuting the latter will cause a multiple amount of problems regardless as to how experienced you are.
