Ken you have to see what codes the abs is reporting. This sounds like an abs fault to me. Some aftermarket scanners can’t see this info. If your scanner can’t I would recommend taking it to a shop for diagnosing. Brakes are not monitored by this system so I wouldn’t really recommend a brake inspection. Hope this helps and keep us posted

-JimThe first step is to look at the fluid level. Read your owners manual on the exact procedure to check the fluid. Sometimes cold start up with poor shifting is just associated with low fluid levels. Hope this helps and keep us posted.

I disagree with college man. Sometimes RTV is used on hard to seal parts of an oil pan, like the edges. When I replaced the oil pan on my Wrangler the service manual called for Mopar sealant on all four corners. My advise is when you pull of the old gasket look for parts that seem to be very sticky like they are held on with gum. Those sticky parts need to be scraped clean on both surfaces and the use of RTV is needed. If you want to be doubly sure check your service manual for the precise locations.

sounds like a door lock actuator. this is the built into the latch it’s self and as long as it is still plugged in (and at the switch too) you need a new one.

these codes all point to the throttle body. as long as MAP, MAF, and the air intake system are good it is a faulty throttle body. how many miles are on this car? the year is under the powertrain warranty for the 10years, and as long as you are under 1k miles this is free at your GM dealer. These throttle bodies can be pricey so i would do that. hope this helps.

yes it is OK to put a car into neutral when driving. a bad thing would be to over-rev the engine while in neutral. to prevent this make sure your foot is off the gas pedal when shifting into neutral and while in neutral don’t give the car too much gas. as for the hesitation i would recommend the use of top tier gasoline. top tier is the best for engine performance. you can find a station near you by visiting http://www.toptiergas.com/. Let me know if I can be of any other help.

I don’t believe in that no codes no problems. I have had plenty of noises that didn’t set any codes. Yes I watched the video and no I don’t hear anything abnormal. Those engines are a little noisy. It sometimes is hard to tell on video. I guess the only advise I can give you now is just drive the car normally and see if it gets any worse. Make sure you follow the recommended service intervals and you’ll be OK. If you do all your part and it blows up it will be covered by the warranty. Hope this helps you.
