Boy that sounds identical to my 95 Buick Riviera. My step son is very knowledgable about vehicles. He said that Buicks often get a bad ground on the computer. This will cause the ABS/traction and coolant low lights to come on. You just have to clean and remake the ground connection. Apparently you can change the front bearing on the supercharger and cure the noise. I have not done any of this yet. If it cures it I will repost.

your engine noise is most likely the supercharger coupler inside the supercharger itself or the harmonic balancer on the crankshaft either one can be had for reasonable - to check remove supercharger belt and start the car if you still have the noise replace the harmonic balancer ,simple as that no need for a complete engine overhaul as otherwise posted.the abs problem is just a wheel sensor or broken wire at the hub.and once again most likely the low coolant sensor in the radiator or coolant tank causing the low coolant warning light.

leave the supercharger on the car it gives you a little more power and actually the supercharger saves you money on gas because the car has more power it takes less fuel to get you to the speed you need to be at. if you leave the supercharger on the car it will cost about the same as it would have to take it off because you would need to cover the area. and the sound is because the bearing is going out, I have a ultra and its bearing is going out now to it sound like what you said, a diesel running
