Well, my almost bone-stock '97 GT just turned 100,000 miles a few weeks ago and there are some minor issues that have cropped up.

1) Clicking at start-up (cold): It is a rapid clicking sound that appears to be coming from under the car, around where the engine meets the trans. It lasts for about 2-3 seconds and only occurs at cold start-up. Any ideas?

2) Out of the several technical service bulletins I have found there are several on complaints of a vibration at around 62 mph that feels like it is occuring through the whole car as opposed to just the steering wheel. It appears to be a relatively common problem for 96 - 98 models and it has been a growing nusance with mine for the last several months. My mechanic has checked the tires, wheels, and drive shaft and they are ok. Anyone heard of this one or had experience with this?

Thanks in advance for your input and ideas on these issues.
