My transmission started doing a whinning noise about 6 months ago. I was driving along and the car felt like it dropped down gear on its own and I started experiencing a whistling whining noise. I thought it was the catalyic converter, I had the it changed and the noise was still there. I took it to the dealer and they thought it might have been trash in the catalyic that needed to be blown out. WELL IT WASN'T THAT! The noise got worse and worse and transmission went as I driving along on the highway, which could have been dangerous. That was on Tuesday (12/21) and I got it back Thursday (12/23) for $2500.00 (Merrry Christmas to me!).

Get it checked out ASAP!!!

I hate to say this, but for $2,500.00 you could have bought another 1997 SE.
Shouldn't say that, don't know how many miles are on the car. But, seen a 1997 GTP with 87000 miles on it the other day. The guy wanted $3,000.00 for it.
You may have to keep that one for a while to get your money back out.

The milege on my car is 54,000 and at this point I dont have to worry about hopefully nothing else majorly going wrong with it. If I went out and bought another one who is to say that one wouldnt go?

That's true. Your buying someone else's troubles. Didn't know your miles was that low.
Good luck
