Hi, I just got this 03 allroad and before I get going on tuning I'd like to give the car a once-over to make sure everything is in good working order.

Everything looks pretty clean mechanically, I've checked the regular trouble spots and haven't found anything.  I should do a boost leak check and upgrade the recirc valves, this is on the to-do list...

I do have a few driver information center messages I'm not sure on, and I need to flush the heater core to see if it'll blow warm air (lukewarm right now) - the temps stay good so I think(?) the waterpump and thermostat are good, going to try a flush first.

So on the DIC, it's showing a red oil warning and a red coolant warning.  I've confirmed both fluids are topped off, so I think it's bad sensor or something - is there a good way to check these?  Also at the top it cycles through a lot of items then says OK, I'm not clear on if that means all these were checked and OK, or if the items need checked and everything ELSE is OK.  I could use some guidance here please.

I also logged a run on ME7logger and would like advice on if this looks normal for an 03 allroad at altitude (Denver colorado), or if there's anything mechanical I should look at before I start telling the ECU to give me more GO Smiley

P.S. forgot to mention two things!

Group32 idle1 -3.2 part1 0.8 idle2 -2.4 part2 5.5
Group33 bounces from + to - and back as expected.

 Fault codes were cleared but the following returned, do these need addressed?
17866 - Exhaust Gas Temp Sensor 2 (G236): Short to Ground
        P1458 - 35-00 - -
17863 - Exhaust Gas Temp Sensor 1 (G235): Implausible Signal
        P1455 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent


P.P.S. anyone in the Denver/Boulder area feel free to contact me I'm happy to help!  Smiley  Thanks

The cluster appears to just be cycling through its on board demo type procedure. Are on of the cluster buttons stuck?
