Cleared codes, came back better than I thought

Posted the other day when I got my scanner the initial results that I received, there was quite a few and I didn't really know what to make of it. I cleared all codes and drove for a day, just checked and I'm pleasantly surprised.

No ODB codes have came up, only codes that are a concern for me would be 44: DME Activation, solenoid valve, tank ventilation. Guessing this is the purge control valve, easy replace.
1E: IHKA: Auxiliary-water pump. I think I know which system of hoses this is, mine are pretty chewed up.

Only other codes are for an airbag and the sidelight.

Will continue to drive, and will test to see if anything new pops up.

As I said I've just got the scanner so I was pretty excited to use it. I've explored a bit of the functions and would like to know what more I can do with it to discover issues or potential issues that my car may encounter. I was looking at the live data and might've found something I'd like a second opinion on.

When in park, the selector level positions are as follows; L1 closed, L3 closed, L4 open, L5 open.

Is that normal or is there any issues?

Curious as to what important pieces of live data I could look at any reccomendations appreciated!

The L codes will send data to the dashboard. If they aren't correct the display will not be correct.

Turn the xdrive gear over 180 degrees or replace it. Do an adaptation afterwards. I did mine upon replacement. It's the reason I bought my Foxwell.

The best functions are to test components. An important one is sleep mode. Put it to sleep on command for troubleshooting.
