Finally got my PA SOFT 1.4.0 working, please help

Hi guys, finally got my PA Soft 1.4.0 working. Originally I was trying to install it on my Sony WAIO which is WIN 7 Home, 64 bit. Upgrated to Win 7 Ultimate, installed XP emulator and software just did not work - it would not install drivers. Went to the office, found my ancient Dell 600m with XP, in 5-10 min, I was ready to connect.
I have number of codes displayed, any ideas about fix/solutions/ignore - please reply:
2006, 3.0
DME Module:
E4 (228) O2 sensor controller, bank 2, deviation too great, deviation rich
E3 (227) O2 sensor controller, bank 1, deviation too great, deviation rich
EE (238) Misfire Cylinder 1, Misfiring during warm up, worsening emissions (Misfire carb B_1)EE (238)
EF (239) Misfire Cylinder 2, Misfiring during warm up, worsening emissions (Misfire carb B_1)
5A (91) Exhaust temp before catalyst, bank 1, signal line, short circuit to negative
5B (90) Exhaust temp before catalyst, bank 2, signal line, short circuit to negative
5D (90) Exhaust temp after catalyst, bank 2, signal line, short circuit to negative
3F (063) Control unit self-test 3
3E (062) Solenoid valve, secondary air, short circuit to negative or open circuit.

I had a lean fuel condition with "check engine" light come on and off some time ago and could not pass inspection, Changed original fuel filter, no more "CE", passed inspection no questions asked and later did spark plugs as part of the winter winter prep, air filter is also new. so I went form lean fuel to rich - interesting...

From LCM:
28 (040) Thermal oil-level sensor detect
SHADOW:
58 (088) engine failsafe program
5F (095) check coolant level <<< took may be 100-150 gramm of coolant only so not empty at all

I would note what you have and clear everything. You don't know when they were thrown. Could have been recent, could have been years ago and the issues are fixed.
Clear everything and then scan after a day, a week, month, etc.

You will need to replace that 02 sensor.

MAF - inspect and clean

Hi, thank you guys, I did reset everything (some codes stayed as "shadow") i can see that O2 sensors have a lot of errors but what are the odds of 3 of them taking the dump?

Yeah all three of them at the same time going highly unlikely. May have to search elsewhere.

I had a similar issue and first tried cleaning the MAF, but no joy, then replaced the MAF, still engine management light on. Finally, done a diy smoke test and found a split boot pipe, sucking in air. Replaced pipe and engine running lovely again.

It should not be a rocket science to verify all those "..line short circuit to ground" messages..

Huh, I believe, I will need a bigger trick to solve it. There is no check engine light, engine was smoked.

Those "..line short circuit to ground" are normal - there's no way to clear those. I have them on mine as well - was told by a mechanic that BMW does it when the actual sensor is absent.

Hmmmm... I did not have them absent at any point on other hand I have this car for a couple of month only - not sure how the system could remember if they were unplugged before I purchased the X.. As far as misfire codes, do you think I installed 2 defective plugs (NGK iridiums)? Or should lean towads the coils replacement?
