well the wheel problem and the stereo problem are minor.

Tranny problems are no fun I think my tranny is starting to act up as well.

But the good news is you can get an auto tranny for only a few hundred bucks with warranty.

the sound you're talking about... is it a vibrating/grinding/whining sound? if so your heat shield is broken just take it off. it happened to me, sounded like it was coming from the wheel and everything

by the way Don't give up, your Torque converter its going bad either swap it or get a working tranny @ autoyard
your in Cali so parts are accessible quite easily and at a low price.

Then get some Stereo guys to help you figure out your system, there is always someone at work or school good at them. it could be a blown fuse or a short in the harness.

the feeling of getting down to it and Do it yourself, its such an accomplishment and a good feeling. keep it up post results and ask.everyone here its helpful and in no time you'll have that machine turning heads
