normally the oil lines to the radiator are screwed in as there is pressure in these lines from the pump in the transmission. If the flexible hoses are only on tail with a hose clip to hold it on I would change them to screw in type to cater for the pressure of the transmission pump. Have a pressure test done on the transmission to ensure that the pressure is not too high.

water in fuel or cheap gas any weather type flooding in your area lately?

service transmission

Idle sounds too high. Try getting the throttle body cleaned out before doing anything. Use only air intake cleaner....

The wiper motor takes its orders from the wiper switch which is probably faulty. It wont take long to ruin your windshield unless you live where it rains constantly. It you're sure it wont rain you can pull the fuse out until you can get it repaired. Probably wont be cheap as it's also probably on a multi function switch. If you have a friend that knows how to install a toggle switch to turn the power on and off to the wiper motor and money is a problem then that's the way I would go. Under $10 solution as opposed to what will probably several hundred $

Controls the amount of air going into your engine.

run fault codes before you waste money. The ECM will keep the engine in tune until a sensor fails so find out exactly has failed and fix that first.

check fuse for sunroof

try checking your fuse if not then check the connection to your wiper motor if all is good then its your wiper motor.

have load test done on the battery as there may be a failing cell causing an internal shorting problem

charge battery... you might have a surface charge somewhere in the system if it just randomly happened

Have you checked fuel pressure? Dies it only stall when in gear and trying to accelerate? Could be a mass airflow sensor. Give me more info.

might be blown relay or fuse. may not have anything to do with battery change. test switch & motor if relay and fuse is ok.

Ing coil is most likely to be the cause.

First off..Do you have the High Pressure direct injection 3.6 LLT engine or basic 3.6 Engine ? Yes the upper Plenium has to come off, but you will have to probably pull your wipers off, and the 7mm screws that hold the cowl beauty panel on and then there is enough cleareance to remove the plenium, disconnect throttle body snorkel tube at throttle body, remove 10mm bolt at brkt drivers side of throttlebody (ball stud) if I remember right, then there are 13mm bolts at back besides the obvious ones you can see and carefully lift it up off engine, thenyou can get to rails for the injectors, to bleed off 3.6 low pressure fuel system pull fuel pump fuse in trunk fuse box and start it let it run out of gas, then bleed Schrader valve too on rail, if you have a high pressure direct injection llt engine let me know, will describe procedure to you

Chances are if the other windows are working, then your Motor is burned out

Check your Brake Switch on the Back of your Brake Pedal, GM knows this is a problem.Also if you have lost GROUND on the Rear Lights, it would also do it

Try shifting down to 2nd gear and see what it does. Put top grade full in it with extra cleaner. Check air intake filter and clean sensor. Has the fuel filter been changed ?If this don't do it , check out the electric computer transmission set.

pcm is seeing camshaft to crankshaft correlation out of spec. could be a faulty cam or crank sensor or a timing chain problem (which these engines are known to have timing chain issues.)
