I have a 2000 GT 5-speed, its getting on in miles, just topped 95,000 and I am just starting to have a few problems.I went out of town for a couple weeks let my car sit at home. I came back and the SES light was on, along with the radiator light.I tried not to drive it too much, but when ihad toit chugged really bad and did it not want to accelerate, mostly at lower rpms.It sounded bad, and if ireally pushedit the car even shook a little. After a day or two the lights turned off and the chugging mostly stopped. Since then it has been on and off, with only the radiator light turning on. Im not getting the power i know i have, and it still chugs a little. Would it just be becuase i need a radiator flush? Do I need a tune up too? I had a tune up at around 60,000-65,000 miles, but I did make afew 1000 mile trips.

Also, my ABS light has been coming on every once in a while too, sometimes it will go days on and days off, is that normal? I would figure if there was a problem it would stay on.

I dont have much money so I wanted an opinion from you guys first, I also just moved from chicago to georgia, so I dont have a trusty mechanic yet. Any imput would be appreciated.

Your radiator has no way to sense it needs a flush.

You need to pull the codes. No point in guessing really when you possibly have codes there waiting to tell you whats wrong.
