codes 44 and 45
These codes keep haunting my rs... I got rid of them about 2 months ago and now they just appeared just today... I pulled out the sensor that goes atop of the throttle positing sensor... I'll try providing pictures later... WHen i pulled it out... I noticed that there was black filth and i just replaced the darn sensor... Hell, I even cleaned out the throttle body... and i did notice that my tail pipes spit out black smoke and sometimes black water... Does anyone have some sort of diagrams or those do it yourself kits because I am just having the last nerve on my rs... and get this, she only has 76k original miles, what a bitch.... thanks

You should really buy a GM service manual for your car, from http://www.helminc.com , it'll tell you exactly what to do for each trouble code.
The sensor you removed was the IAC motor, you could've just cleaned the pintle and put it back in- but that wouldn't do anything about a code 44 or 45.
The GM/Helm Shop Manual/Service Manual will have exactly what you're looking for- diagrams and trouble shooting charts.
For now, check your oxygen sensor's signal wire, make sure it hasn' t melted against the exhaust pipe. If it has melted to the pipe, that shorts it out and sets a false code 45.
