Some Fault Codes, Any Ideas?

Scanned for codes today via bootmod3, and these came up. I know the top four are the 4 tire pressure monitors. Aftermarket wheels so I'm not worried about those. Any ideas on the others would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Wrong tool for the job. This is the right tool for diagnostics, as it will tell you exactly what the codes are and clear them:

Thanks for the suggestion. I would definitely spring for that if I was willing to spend the money, but I have a bunch of other things planned for the car right now and that's not exactly in the budget . Otherwise I'd pick it up in a heartbeat.
I know that BM3 isn't a real scan tool, i.e. it won't tell me what the codes are for, like you said. I was hoping someone would recognize them and say what they are, or refer me to a guide of some sort that lists codes and what they are related to.

You're right. Bootmod3 is a flash tuning tool. I have used the Foxwell NT510 reader with no problems at all. Its a very reliable piece of equipment. Couldn't recommend it more.

I did a quick search on the forum for the last code listed...

http://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1249783

Maybe check the forum and see if others are listed as well. In any case, when you can consider purchasing a Foxwell. You won't regret the bucks you spend.

Keep us posted on what you find...good luck...

Ohh yah! I remember reading that thread while ago when I first saw the code. The way they talk about it there it seems like a junk code that just gets thrown out, no real issue tied to it, or at least no issue that warrants concern. I'll keep looking for the others. Thanks!

I saved the cost of my Foxwell the first time I used it.
