65-70 Vibe..... TSB?

My truck just picked up the dreaded vibe with about 5K on the odometer. Anyone now if there is a TSB yet? I'm going to the dealer in the morning for that and the door seal.
which reminds me, What's the TSB for weather stripping?

TSB for the seal is 23-008-04, not sure if there is one for the vibe, they have been kinda skirtin around that one, just read recently that some one had theirs bought back because they could not fix the problem, others have had the problem fixed but their doesn't seem to be one specific fix for everyone. Good luck.

Thumbs up

Problem solved. New driveshaft installed today (P/N 52853185AC) which cured my vibration. Also had left and right body seals replaced (P/N 55277190AB and 55277191AB) which are a lower profile design that the door edge no longer catches on. There are not TSB's out for either problem on my truck, but there is a part # supercession re: the door seals. Overall, I am very happy with Chapman Dodge in Las Vegas. Painless purchase, and excellent service Dept.

My local dealer finally agreed there was a vibration around 70 mph and has ordered a new driveshaft, after he got approval from DC.

Twisted - which shaft are they replacing on your truck.

I wish I would not have gotten the door seal replaced w/the new one. The lower profile makes alot more wind noise come through(especially cross-wind). I tried to get my old one back and they said they could not release it. If you like a tight seal just cut the front a little w/an exacto knife, I did this with the passenger side and it worked great.
