Patience.
I don't know what "three killer lights" means. What is happening to your rear left hub? Expect gas mileage to be around 12-14 city 17-20 highway. I just took two keys that I bought off ebay to Home Depot and they could copy them easily, mine didn't have a chip in them though. What is the code number that your engine is spitting out? Regards

 

I get about 15 MPG city and highway.

 

There is no software that will allow you access into the ECU.
The only computer that can do that is Rover's Note Book at $30,000 plus.

ok the three killer light's are the DHD.ABS and traction control light's
also i only get about 8 mpg average 14 highway with no stops and no traffic. whats with this thing???

 

Are you sure about that DHD light? I'm not familiar with that one. Many of us have had the ABS, TC, and HDC lights come on. This can range from worn brake pads and discs, to worn hubs, to ABS modulators. When my three lights came on I started by replacing the brake pads and checking the discs, then had the code read and cleared by my dealer. Lights have not returned, so I think it was my worn kevlar pads combined with slotted rotors. Code was "Intermittant output from ABS sensor".

 

You only need to go have the brake system scanned, get the codes and then decide on a fix.
As for the mileage, what octane gas are you running, what tune related work has been done on it recently and how hard are you driving it?
