the codes are P1157,P606,P135.thanks

I bought a Nigerian used EOD 2004 2.4L 4plugs, I serviced immediately after the purchase but after two weeks I discovered engine oil shortage and also the car consumes more fuel than an average eod. I took the car to my regular mechanic and he said I'll need to ring the engine that some parts are old or worn out already & thats the reason for the colored exhaust fumes when I start the car in the morning , he said there's no need to change the whole engine because the car still moves as fast as any other eod, ac is working perfectly and other features are cool.. But I want a professional advance and also cost of ringing and cost of fixing another engine.
I also want to know if is possible when changing the car engine to a 2.0L instead of the factory 2.4L engine.

Thank you.

Raising shocks is very bad idea, replace them.
The throttle body of the car may need replacement, but start with claening your injection system and replacing the spark plugs.

The gear cable may have issues leading to difficulty in selecting reverse, if not, na gear box wahala be that.

Steering rack - 28,000
All shocks - 45,000
Gear sensor - Don't think you need that.
5W-20 HG oil - 2,500 per liter can
ATF-DW1 - 3,500 per liter can
HG steering fluid - 2,000 each
Throttle body - 25,000 toks.
