sooo boys and ladies..... I downloaded the m3 back too the factory settings the day after the codes were thrown. the check engine light was still on. i drove around like that for a few days, but not knowing what the codes were from or why my CEL was on have been kinda keeping my foot out of it. i also tried the turn the truck on an off like 10 times and nothing changed. but today i went to town to get dinner and i guess i got a little antsy and opened him up around a corner, got sideways and im amazed at how well the truck is running at this point. (the CEL was ON when i left the house, when i get to jimboys, Its gone the CEL was off!!!!) Im so confused, so i get home check for codes? NONE?? wth happened 
?? Now in HS my best friend had a trans am that had the total race motor and package in it. we got it to 180 mph and it was still going. my point to saying this is her mom drove that monster so slow and never opened it up and it almost ruined the car.the only thing that saved it was linz and I taking it out and opening it up and getting it too the high rpm it was built for. I wasnt driving it like I normally did before this actually because i was worried about the boost fooler issue. and then the codes popping up and i really started driving like a gramma so could the drastic change in driving could have caused the fuel rail sensor to throw the performance code? and when i finally opened it up the code went away? or am i way off?

Sometimes our trucks will throw codes and with some driving they will go away. It just happens.

OK - Ill close this for now. You are free to open it back up if it continues to be an issue. Let us know how it turns out.
