At 54K have you ever had the transaxle (transmission) flushed? It needs to be done, the transaxle is a weak link and needs servicing just like the engine.
Thanks, I didn't realize that the tansaxle fluid was that important. I'll put that on the list.

Do you have a recommendation about which wires and plugs? I'm wondering if I can purchase them locally or if I have to order them online.
