Q: Install audio head unit
I just bought 2 polk audio speakers, new head unit and a sub with connectors, adaptors and more. I never did this before. I hope you can help me. I was wondering what to do first. Should I do the head unit and front 2 speakers or the sub with connectors, adaptors? Or is it installed all at once? I didn't get a master sheet with my new stuff. How do I remove the old head unit, doors and speakers, and how do I install that? I have dynamat and crimp connectors. Do you have any details on how to do the installation?

The shifting problem you are having may be a sign of low transmission fluid (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/transmission-fluid-service) or a faulty transmission control solenoid.
