Finch,
Here is what I would do. I would replace the rear shocks myself. I did it with hand tools in 1.5 hrs. Does your turbo still boost good? I would look into PCV mod 6. It eliminated the blue smoke on startup (cost about $120 for all bits). I find it hard to believe your struts are busted at 67k miles. This I would wait on. What is your impression of a shot strut? Buzzing fuel pump? Mine just quit and died. No noises. This sounds like a possible fuel filter issue with lack of flow. Can't help you with the transmission stuff though, I own an auto. Hope that helps.
R.T.
