Active vs Passive DTC codes in inspection, concerns?
Hi, looking to purchase a used 2017 Macan GTS and got an inspection showing the following codes. I'm concerned about some of these and potential repair costs, but was told that they are passive not active so it means they aren't ocurring right now. How concerned should I be?
Also, This was done at a 3rd party shop which specializes in German cars because the wait time for PPI at dealership was 3 weeks+
