I did some messing around with my Gap tool, finally got Dynamic mode coded, like everyone it took a few Pivi restarts. I had also previously disabled start stop. I'm on a 2025 p400.

I had a CEL pop up at the weekend.

Plugged the GAP tool in, read the code as a stuck O2 sensor in bank 2 stuck on lean. Cleared the code. Ran the fault code reader again and all clear.

It appeared after I'd gunned the engine to overtake on a hill. I'll obviously keep an eye out for a recurrence but it seems that transient issues can be easily addressed on the fly. If it is indeed a faulty O2 sensor it will no doubt rear it's ugly head again.

off-topic
Not all gravy this weekend. I decided it was wise to trim a bit of damaged wheelhouse liner with a blade. Decided doing this at a trailhead an hour drive from camp was wise. Skilled as I am with blade, knife cut one of the thin aluminum pipes in my aux-cooler. Coolant comes squirting out. Hightailed it back to camp, topping up with a little coolant and fixing the radiator (crushed the leaking pipe with a pliers) on the way back. It's holding steady. leak is 99.999% sealed. A new aux radiator was ordered ($125 on eBay). Not my finest hour but glad I could do a roadside fix.

On a related CEL note, I had the same code come up last year. Took it to LR and it was covered. Got it back same day and saw a picture that its really buried in there. That said they forgot to reinstall 4 screws holding the skid plate and snapped the head off a 5th. Did an oil change the day after to find this out. Got new screws to replace, but still need to work out the 5th screw body to install the last one... by the way they are $17 a piece. Long story short, never hurts to look over the work of others, regardless where the work is done... LR, a trailhead, etc.

Oh, I should have mentioned, that I was told that the O2 sensors on these apparently clog more easily? (What LR told me.) Mine is a 2020 P400 SE

What’s this I see in a thread up above? Corner speed assist? Is this something we can turn on with ACC?

You can toggle that on or off. It's part of ACC.

I do not like that feature- corner speed assist- as it will slow you down around curves- even the ones with the slightest curvature. I keep mine off. I had this feature with another car, and it drove me crazy until I figured out how to turn it off. Some folks may like it though.
