Hi all,
As some of you may have seen the other day, my Fsi's EML came on the other day, and has stayed lit ever since, although there's no other outward symptoms, it still seems to run very nicely. Although my Proboost ECU arrived this morning (many thanks @A2Steve) I thought it would be prudent to try and run a scan, both to establish a baseline and as a learning exercise, before thinking of installing it. Thanks to some generous assistance from @PlasticMac I managed to get VCDS Lite working with my cable of unknown origin surprisingly easily. I ran a full scan and got the following results...
Surprisingly I managed to get VCDS Lite to work (well at least I got it to do something!), in the end I opted to use the driver on the link I found as I found the instructions on the FTDI site impossible to follow! The latency test turned out to be "excellent". I ran a full scan, here's the results in full...

No fault code found.
Does the hive mind of A2OC have any comments on these 2 faults? 16395 came up in the Ross tech wiki and to my eyes didn't look terribly serious, though cited as an explanation for "power loss" (which I haven't noticed). I didn't find 17912 in the wiki however found it in a forum search (air intake system: leak detected), no idea how significant this is.
As a complete newbie to this, would it be sensible to clear the codes, run the engine again for a bit and do another scan? And would I gain very much by shelling out the registration fee at this stage?
As an aside, I noticed something else quite odd. The VIN's 8th character in the scan output is different to that on my V5 (which replaces the Z with a 7). The sticker in the service book has it correct so it appears there's a typo on my V5. How serious is this and does anyone know if it's something DVLA can correct?
