YKYDAXJW you find ANOTHER squeak!
This is like the 5th one and I don't know how to fix it, the freaking steering wheel column squeaks when it's cold.

I've had an issue kind of like that, my gauges sometimes go off because of a loose wire. Every time it does it, my Check gauges and airbag light come on. And it will run like crap one day and make terrible noises, but the next day I can go from 0-60 in like 8 seconds (maybe more, maybe less)

Funniest thing is when I go to research one is and find what's wrong that issue goes away and something else pops up. I need to overhaul her, clean everything and flush everything.

It seems when I change my plugs in te summer that w as the catalyst to everything else wanting changing

Ykydaxjw she's about to have to go in the transmission shop cause she gets harder and harder to shift every day and doesn't like reverse, but your worried bout driving something else, and who might drive it while she's getting fixed.

Well, it's actually around 12, but like 6 of those are from stupid crap (loose stuff in glovebox, glovebox itself, etc.) and the other one I fixed (rear seat locking post)
