  1. I doubt it. You said it used to start by wiggling the shifter in park. Try starting it with the shifter in neutral. The selector switch (neutral safety switch) may be out of adjustment or going bad. Try this. Get a piece of wire 14 or 16 gauge long enough to go from the battery to the starter. Put it in Park and turn the key to ON. On the back of the starter solenoid is a small wire that plugs in. Unplug it and put one end of your wire on the terminal the plug was on and touch the other end to the battery positive post. It should crank and start. Let us know what happens.

  3. double check battery cable connections. Charging circuit probably needs testing too. has there been a history of lots of fuzzy battery corrosion? battery cables can corrode inside the insulation. try whacking the starter a little harder - use a piece of 2x4 or similar.

  5. Have you changed the trans fluid? Drain and fill 3 times with short drives in between or I pull the radiator trans coolant line and let the old fluid pump out. Many post on changing the fluid. Long post on fixing Delayed trans shifts. The TransX additive has been used by many. When my 2002 Impreza Outback trans was acting up, a change to Amsoil trans fluid helped significantly. Good visual inspection of the half shafts and drive shaft u joints. Drive in tight circles on dry pavement, is the dragging noticed?
