Is the PDK running normal or are you experiencing some issues? If problems, what are the symptoms? I can't find a reference to C418 in PDK (or P418 which would be a PAG code - could C418 be a Durametric specific code?), but I can find U0418 within PDK documentation - U0418 is a faulty entry in the specified control module (i.e. PDK?).

Sometimes errors are triggered in various modules as a sympathetic response to the actual issue somewhere else, as Speedway has noted above.

EDIT: Include U0418 Diagnostics

Diagnosis information CAN
Fault entry in specified control module

NOTE
Internal function test completed!

Diagnostic conditions
The control module initially tests internal function sequences after wakeup.
If they are OK, all diagnosable outputs are then tested and any faults are stored.
Control module wakeup through:
  • event induced CAN message
  • wakeup signal via wakeup line
  • key contact (terminal S)
  • "Ignition on"

Possible fault causes
  • Control module is incorrectly coded
  • Periphery connected to specified control module is incorrect
  • Control module faulty (in most cases the cause is not the control module but incorrect coding!)

Fault effects
  • The specified control module sends only substitute values via the CAN.
  • Other control modules detect these substitute values and set this fault code.
