Stop throwing money away with replacing electrical components, get involved with the repairs of your car, or you'll waste tons of money. With the help of this board you'll be pointed in the right direction, even if you don't do the repairs yourself.

Buy yourself an OBDII reader so you can read your own codes. Very unlikely for both O2 sensors to go bad, most likely a leaking vaccuum elbow, the other one that was not fixed.

ABS/TRACS light indicates you have a bad ABS module, common failure in your car. About $130 to have it fixed. Do a search on ABS module failures on this board.

It's your car still under warranty. If it is you're in luck. The ETS light on, indicates an ETS module failure, another common failure in your car. About $1200 repair at the dealer. The ETS module failure will give hesitation, stalling, no start problems and a CEL light on. The ABS module failure will not give you a CEL light on, you just don't have anti-lock brakes.
