I'm getting the service engine soon light. Replaced gas cap and reset light but after about 40 miles, it came on again. Any ideas on what sensor it most likely is? Unrelated, I have a buzzing noise in the radio when car is running and a abnormal thumping noise coming from the rear when going over even the smallest bumps. This is a stock 2000 v6. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

There is soooooooo much stuff that check engine light could be. Go to your local CSK store and ask them to scan your car. It is free and they tend to give half way decent advice if you aren't much of a mechanic. The buzzing sound is that you need to instal some ground straps from your engine to your unibody, and make sure that your strap from the unibody to the battery is good and tight. The more the better, and if you do have a bad ground you might pick up a bit of power due to a properly functioning ignition. The clunk you crawl under and have your FRIEND put his knees on your bumper and bounce the car to reproduce the sound while you are under it(dont squish your head). Just follow the sound. It's most likely a shock or a bushing going out. Good luck!!!
