Smoke in tranny?
If i twist the key and try to turn the car on and it clicks, but it doesn't wanna start and you can see smoke coming up from right where the tranny is? what's the problem? It started before, but now it's not? I checked my grounds and they were HOT. ....

ahh i knew it. What a freakin ***. the car took a while to start up since 5 months ago. 2 days ago i put a new battery and hope that help.. but turns out it didn't. Still took a while to start up. So now the starter died. LOL ...

The starter probably died <U>because</U> it takes a while to start. starters are not designed to crank for more than a couple of seconds at a time, more than that and they eventually overheat and burn out.
Taking a while to start is a different problem that caused the starter failure. Get that taken care of before another starter goes out on you.
