Reading fault codes on the dash?

[techathy]

Is there anyway to read the E89s logged fault codes on the dash?

Had a little oops today, failed to notice a significant dip in the road and crossed it at a fairly large throttle opening (70-75%). I was greeted with a loud tyre chirp from the front of the car & 'bong' and an ! in the centre panel of the dash but it went out too quickly to know which one exactly or any supporting dash lights. I have a feeling that the DSC may have had a slight moment as I know the front off-side wheel locked up for a split second but I'd like to know.

It was probably your run flat one - it's triggered when the rolling resistance of the two tyres don't match up (the idea is that the flat will have a higher rolling resistance). If you landed funny, it might have sensed the discrepancy and thought there was a flat.

Start engine.
Left stalk, rotary switch down to see 'Check Control'
Press end of stalk BC switch
Then press and hold BC switch.

CC-ID codes will appear.

To test run fuel down to last two units, about 50-70 range and try.
Should see CC-ID 275.....low fuel.

Isn't that current codes not a historical log?

Probably.
Local garage ran a obd check with my brake pad wear reset problem.
Came up with nothing, yet I know I have cc-id 71 that didn't show?
But does show on dash.
So I assume it's current and not logged?
