    Faults on scan

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I ran a scan on my car and have these 11 faults. Which of these are legit and which are false positives? I have no check engine lights or any other known issues with the car. Would it be beneficial for me to just clear them and see if they come back?

    Thanks!

    They should have dates when they occurred.

    Assuming it wasn't recently I would save the log, clear them and not worry about them unless they come back.

    Would be nice, wouldn't it.. along with reset count and frequency, etc. Unfortunately I want to say that if they used one of them sub-par apps to scan, they may not all show that level of detail, which sucks.

    If you're trying to rule out false positives, reset the codes and see where you are in a couple of hours or days of driving around. The one about secondary air injection could simply be the need for canon cleaning of that pump system, which is covered by Audi for an extended period, if I remember correctly. The verbiage is a bit bogus, but that's probably because of the app thing again.

    Good call Swank, didn't even think about the fact that he is probably not using VCDS.

    I'd take a picture of the codes, clear them and see if they come back.
