The lack of periods and sentence structure are the major issues. Oh, you mean the vacuum problem!

Its usually cracked hoses for the lock system that cause leaks. The plastic hoses in the doors get brittle with age and crack in the door joints.
Lock the driver door and see if that shortens the shutoff time.

Well, you are doing the best you can!
I have spent time in Germany, Hong Kong, Singapore and the Philippines and I did not speak their Language and it is very humbling.
