P1000 is just a warning, so not a direct problem.
P0306 is a misfire on cylinder 6. But 6 cylinders on a KA?
P1632 is a Smart Alternator Faults Sensor / Circuit.

So, which cylinder misfires is a mystery. Maybe try a different scanner.
Otherwise check for air leaks and check injector spray patterns.

I have a 6 cylinder ka!

The ka has no method of detecting which cylinder the misfire is happening on, start with air leaks as mentioned (google how to find vacuum leak), check leads, check spark plugs, change coilpack
