Thanks for the help.

I tried checking the transmission fluid, but I'm very limited in my experience with any kind of vehicle mantinence. I read the manual, and It didn't tell me where the transmission dipstick was, so I just sort of poked around.

I checked the only other dipstick I could find besides the oil, so yeah... I'm still basically lost in the dark.

A buddy of mine that has worked on cars his whole life suggested that older cars don't like the cold very much, and It might just be a temporary thing. The problem is, it's not getting any warmer... and I need a car to commute to school.

Hopefully It's just the fluid... but I'm still working on confirming that I actually checked the fluid saying as how I'm a complete moron when it comes to cars...

As far as driving it, I've been pretty good to it. I'm semi grandma-ish myself when driving. No tickets @ 21, so I'm a wuss on the highway. Say what you want, but I'd rather drive slow and get good gas mileage, then drive like maniac, get a million points on my liscense and shell out money that I don't have.
