-ABS/PSM which was just a new wire loom
-The power steering, accumulator, and slave leak, which was prob. the most expensive fix to date.
-Now have the leak from the ram that finally leaked enough fluid to start throwing the dreaded spoiler failure error. Getting that fixed next week.
-Also going to the second gear pop out mod next week as a precaution.
In regards to the engine or trans, no issues at all.

Will do the normal tests I do to make sure it is running good and also check history.

Ok thanks, another member (Urban) is going to be there picking up some parts and will take a look at it also. Itll be nice to see if you both pick up on the same issues. This is why I love this forum, tons of good info but even better, great people!! I appreciate it.
