Whats going on people!

Quick intro:
I'm a newbie here on the forum and to the mustang world. I used to be passionate about import cars since I owned a 01 eclipse:

but I sold it, and bought my 'stang for 7k (salvage that is :P)! so now I'm all muscle! :rock:
All I can say is there's a heck of a difference in every aspect! love my stang!

Help a newbie out?
...but... i''ve got a problem with my car.... y'all have great info in here so let's see if y'all can help me out! My cars got a problem and i'm lost on it...
Symptoms:
1. When the car is cold and I turn it on, if i put my car on reverse it makes a whining sound like of someone was saying "eeeeee" in a high pitch voice. It rarely does that noise when its warm
2. When I'm driving (especially in high speeds) and I come to a complete stop by braking suddenly making my car nose dive, it seems like if my cars transmission pops out of place. Once I stop and try to accelerate, my engine just revs up a little bit and then it pops into gear and accelerates abruptly. This only happens when I make a complete stop in a short distance by braking really hard.

*note: In my first oil change, I once mistakenly drained all of the transmission fluid thinking it was the oil... and drove my car dry like that to the mechanic. (short distance). I know... stupid :doh:
Also my car's salvage and it seems it had a front collision



I hate to admit it but I am a 19yr old with really, really basic knowledge on fixing cars. And I would like to learn a lot more since I have a passion for them!
thanks for taking the time to read my post and helping me out! :nice:
 
ya u prob did something to the trans running it with no fluid.

The nose diving down under hard braking is normal its just weight/momentum transfering cuz ur slamming on the break.

The winning sound is normal just your trans i believe and the gears whinning when ur drivin backwards.
