    Rattling when accelerating

    There's a very loud rattling when I press down on the accelerator. It appears to be directly correlated to the position of the pedal and not the actual rpms. Additionally, the rattling occurs on startup, however it doesn't occur if I rev the engine in neutral. I'm not quite sure what's going on...

    Automatic Transmission Question

    How to change filter and fluid in a 2006 jeep wrangler 4.0 Automatic Transmission. I'm read and seen on you tube they take line loose and drain while shifting thru gears. Seems to me this would be a bad ideal, I don't know. Thanks for any help.

    Automatic or Manual?

    What do you prefer? I don't have to deal with traffic jams or city driving, so I like my manual transmission. I feel more in control.
