40 psi sounds high. For actual recs check sticker on drivers door. These factory recs are a compromise between comfort and safe handling. For winter driving some people "up" the inflation for better traction in snow, etc.. Check the side of the tire for MAX psi (it's stamped from Tire mfg) You can use the tire mfg.'s 'max" rating safely. Over inflation will cause tires to run on just center treads.

I don't know what he means by spreading. If your engine was out of oil, it had to either leak out, burn up, or somebody drained it. Was your engine making a lot of noise and running hot? I can't imagine the engine being run without oil for more than a few minutes before it would seize up from lack of lubrication. Didn't your oil light or a check engine light come on to let you know that the oil level was low? If the engine is still running, and doesn't have the rods knocking, go ahead and put fresh oil and filter in it and see what happens. Keep me posted. This is interesting.

12 volt battery

What you need is more info, Does it do it only when its hot? In the morning or after a trip.
Maybe start a log. You need to find out what you are lacking when it hard to start i.e. fuel or spark.
One of the first things that came to my mind however is the fuel pressure regulator in the fuel rail return line is leaking down. Lee

Not sure of your vehicle, but...(and this will be in your manual) sounds like a tire pressure monitor, get all of your tires set correctly and it should go away after a short drive. (These are a requirement after 2007)

Yes you can fill the reservoir with water.
You can use Peak Coolant. It has lifetime warrant.

If the car doesnot go into reverse you have more then likely a stretched or disconnected shift cable, please check it especially at the transmission side cover. If the cable/linkage is fine the transmission may have to be further examined for a posible reverse band condition, they do wear over time, how many miles do you have on the vehicle?
How does it shift into forward gears any problems? If the forward shifts are fine chances are its a reverse band issue which requires a major transmission repair depending on what is found on the journey to the reverse band condition.

both parts will be cheap from brake pads to wheel bearing if need to replace. 50 bucks for sets of brake pad and wheel bearing will be 27 bucks. rear grinding could be your brake pads are worned and rubbing against the rotor. you can do the work your self and don't need a shop as long you have the right tools. if its the wheel bearing than its going to be other task, which still can perform the work at home. Big 1/2 inch sockets sets with box and open end wrench will come in handy. if it the rear end it will be best to take it to professional to have the work done.

What year?

sounds like a wiring problem unless you are a mechanic take it to a dealer

What colour is the smoke? The easiest way to check this is on first start when the engine is cold. This can give clues as to where the problem could be. is the vehicle doing anything else different? A blue exhaust smoke is commonly oil getting into the cylinders. White smoke suggests coolant getting into the cylinders. Black smoke is the engine running too rich. Blue or white smoke can often mean a blown head gasket. On a 2001 engine that could the most likely reason.

(takes skills) facing engine bank 1 is right bank, cylinder 1 front there. KS1 is on same bank. left word below means drivers seat perspective see below KS1 is on the right facing the engine clear as day we see the intake manifold is gone. FRONT Of car IS HERE X it is big sandwich, remove the top things seen to get here.called gaining ACCESS to it. KS- sensors can lie you (scannned) chain on cam bad. lifter collapsed or worse, can happen, bent valves? do you hear noise (bad) form the engine, even at idle parked. NO MAN CAN GUESS YOUR SKILLS OR TOOLS NOR WHY YOU LANDED HERE, DWEEBS ON THE WWW INTERNET TOLD YOU? but I did answer how. not tools ,just where it is and what must come off. the block. do not break bolts (snap) removing them. I use pen oil and heat and more tactics. ask with 6mm bolts, there, it can be tedious. not wrecking those. now the SM words told (pasted)

1. Properly relieve the fuel system pressure.
2. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
3. Disconnect the air intake duct from the dual duct housing.
4. Unplug the electrical connectors from the throttle body, the step motor AAC valve and the exhaust gas temperature sensor.
5. Disconnect and label the hoses from the valve cover, the throttle body, the step motor AAC valve, the EGR control valve and the air cut valve.
6. If the spark plug wires are in the way, disconnect them and move them aside. Disconnect the accelerator cable from the throttle body.
7. Remove the upper intake manifold collector-to-intake manifold bolts, and lift the assembly from the intake manifold. Discard the gasket.
8. Remove the lower intake manifold collector-to-intake manifold bolts, in sequence, and lift the assembly from the intake manifold. Discard the gasket.
9. If the fuel injector assembly is in the way, perform the following procedures:
   1. Disconnect the electrical connectors from the fuel injectors.
   2. Disconnect the fuel injector assembly from the fuel lines.

1. Remove the fuel rail-to-cylinder head bolts.
