u need a new crank position sensor,it will eventually go completely

You cange the O2 sensor as the heater is inside the sensor.

need more info to be sure, you could have something as simple as gas cap not being on properly after fill up, there is a sensor on some cars that can set a check engine light under these conditions, also you could have a fauly emmisions valve which is causing fuel to go directly into the intake, the fuel canister could also get flooded out with this condition

CKP SYSTEM VARIATION LEARN PROCEDURE

IMPORTANT:

• The crankshaft position (CKP) system variation learn procedure is required when the following service procedures have been performed, regardless of whether DTCP0315 is set:
• Engine replacement
• Engine control module (ECM) replacement
• Crankshaft damper replacement
• Crankshaft replacement
• CKP sensor replacement
• Any engine repairs which disturb the crankshaft to CKP sensor relationship. The scan tool monitors certain component signals to determine if all the conditions are met to continue with the CKP system variation learn procedure. The scan tool only displays the condition that inhibits the procedure. The scan tool monitors the following components:
• CKP sensor activity-If there is a CKP sensor condition, refer to the applicable DTCthat set.
• Camshaft position (CMP) signal activity-If there is a CMP signal condition, refer to the applicable DTC that set.
• Engine coolant temperature (ECT)-If the engine coolant temperature is not warm enough, idle the engine until the engine coolant temperature reaches the correct temperature.

You buy the GM factory manual and then use the wiring diagrams to track down the systems the fuse supplies power to, and one by one you go through each circuit until you find the short circuit. There is no cut and dry way that works every time to find this type of an automotive electrical problem, I have been doing auto electric for 25 years and seldom does the same repair fix more than one car or truck. You can also rent the manuals for download at this site for about $40 per year, a great deal. www.alldatadiy.com

there should be a lever on the side near the door it will go up and down

sounds as if the hood sensor is loose/hood itself has loose bolts- check all mounting points near hinges- try and find the plunger switch for you alarm and see if it is loose or needs to be adjusted.
sound as if after you engine compartment cools off after driving the hood is shifting enough to trip the alarm

How to change a driver side and passenger globe aswell.

sounds like you have a bad ground wire on your lights...

Remove the bolts.

it sounds like the handle release switch is bad.you could replace it your self as long as you have alot of patience and don`t bend things to do the job.if not then check for a price at a repair shop if you don`t want to go to the dealer.

Is the air filter an aftermarket?

Try and activate your blue-tooth in the phone and let it search for the devices, if found you will need to accept and mesh up the system .
Follow instructions as mentioned in your car manual.

You should get a service manual for that year car since you have to take the steering wheel off and it may be a difficult task if you have tilt steering.

I assume this is not a usa car look to see if the throttle cable is to tight ??

sorry but you are like my friend john ,i make a clutch last 200,000 kms and two set of brake pads in that time and he ¿?¿? new pads and a new clutch in 8000kms ,and the new slave ,yes it could be damaged inside where you keep resting your foot on the clutch ,the seal has gone ,ok us old hands would just a fit a new rubber but ?? dealer?? I know how you you do it ,holding a vehicle on a hill with the clutch ,sitting at the lights with foot on clutch ,changing gear riding clutch so its sounds like a auto ,excessive revving and riding clutch to pull away ,you should have had my driving instructor ,a clip around the ear for not using the clutch properly ,wack across the wrist for holding gearstick and not steering wheel ,the list continues .Sorry this clutch is your own fault ,

thinking here---- trying to remember ----had this before with one of these or was it a opel astra ,anyway on the bottom of the inlet manifold was a breather pipe ,something here as i remember but i cannot remember what for the life of me i did ,i think its some sort of valve or something and it was gone and it sucked oil up --- just cant remember sorry but i know i cured it by blocking the pipe off with a bit of orange tree thin branch .Its just that i do so many cars a week i cannot remember everything
