Default Freelander 1.8 2001 bad idle & head gasket?

Hello, I just bought my first Land Rover. I live in Finland and couldn't get much help here. Sorry if my English is poor...

First of all my Freelander has bad idle. Engine vibrates a bit and rpm is moving up and down a bit. When accelerating the car runs good. Only fault code is crankshaft position sensor. And it's just now and then. Not always. I think that is not the issue.

Second, I have some oil mixed to the coolant. Temperature is ok, there's no pressure in the system and no water in the oil (luckily). I think i try to fix it with a Holts Wondarwelt liquid. Is there possibility that the oil is coming from the gearbox (manual)? Or is the engine oil the only option?

An last. I have a problem with the head lights. Some times the head lights stays on no matter what. After few minutes of adjusting the key and light switch, the lights might go off. Sometimes I have to take the battery off. After that the lights go off. Where is the relay located? Is it the same relay that controls the high beams?

Many, many thanks for any info. I appreciate it very much!
