Many problems have accumulated up over the last year and i've learned to deal with each one of them. But now its just gotten annoying and i need these things fixed. First of all, there is a "ghost" noise coming from my engine within the first 5 minutes of driving. It's rather loud and goes away after 5 minutes, but it needs to be fixed. Secondly, (this just started about a week ago) when i start my car up sometimes, a problem occurs where I will give the car gas (i have a standard) but the car will not go any faster. The engine revs but i won't go one mile faster. Suddenly, I will all of a sudden get a massive bolt of energy and the car finally starts going. Is a belt not catching or what? This is what has really got me angry and I would like to know what I can do to fix it or whether I have to go to my mechanic to have this problem fixed. Finally, where is the best place to buy oem tail lights for a wagon. Mine are all cracked and fogged up and they need to be replaced. Oh yea, where can i find good bumper trim too (front and back left pieces) for under $30 each. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
