I'm afraid I have more questions than answers:

1. rear window
large air bubbles in all corners. can't even identify a car now through it. can i cut the bubbles and let the air out? anyone had it replaced before? what's the price range if so

I've never seen this problem without an aftermarket tint. If you decide to cut be very careful not to damage the defrost "wires". Can you peel from an outside edge to a bubble and then press it back on?

2. ac making sound
perfectly fine on level 1 (cold/heat). level 2 and up there's a whistling sound. wth

Does it make the same noise with just the fan or heat or is it only when the AC is on. If it is with any fan then I suspect that you have some insulation peeling on the inside that causes a whistle if the air is flowing fast enough.

3. how hard is it to removing the passenger seat? need clean up a large coffee stain from previous owner. any precautions?

Are you talking about the seat cover or the whole seat? Try to do the seat cover on the seat. Putting it back on is the problem. If you wash it and it shrinks you have a problem. If you do decide to washing it off the seat make sure you use cold water and I would suggest that you reinstall the seat cover while it is still damp so it can't shrink.

4. where can i buy a brand new set oem sun visor online beside ebay? ebay sells used ones last time i checked

I don't know their names off hand but there are several discount OEM parts suppliers. You might try some searches on "discount OEM" and see if one pops up.



7. should i just go buy a new car?

NO!!
thanks a lot !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Luck,
Kep
