Since they have the car, I'm just having them replace the fan assembly so I can get the car back on the road ASAP. I know, with about 47k miles on the car, I'll probably be replacing the water pump within a year or so but, at least there are videos on replacing that. I would definitely like to have the diag tool to see these trouble codes for future use.
Happy you found the issue.
Another thing for your BM3 Stage 1, I will recommend to get an intercooler if you don't already have one.
Looking to replace the stock IC this coming Spring/Summer but, also considering putting that money toward a LSD. Just can't wait to get the car back, reflash and enjoy.
