Default Setting readiness problems (Cat. Converts and O2 sensors)

I just put a new motor in my 00' S4 and I am trying to get everything set for inspection. I have been able to get readiness to set with everything except for the catalytic converters and the O2 sensors. When I try to set block 034 in Basic Settings I can never get the test to run, it just says,"Test Off." I have gotten the cat temps to a bit over 400 degrees and still nothing. I have no fault codes and the car seems to be running good. Hopefully someone could give me some insight as to what the problem may be. I have searched religiously on here and could not find a solution.
Any help appreciated.

Default Questions like this are better served in their respective model forum.

Anyway from your description I would guess a wheel bearing.

Default This is the right forum. Shut your pie hole xtreetoes.

Sometimes that test plan can be a bitch to set. Sometimes you just have to drive the car a few times before it will eventually set on its own. It doesn't necessarily mean there is any problems with the car. Just drive it for a couple of days and then go to measuring value block 86 or 87 and see if they are all 000000000 if they are then readiness set. Or just go to MVB instead of basic settings to look at individual readiness code status.

Default the readiness should pass after about 50 miles of driving. if not, then you have a coding issue

or they are bad.

Default No prob, I realized that after I posted...

I have driven about 150 miles so far and have tried to set them three times and still can't get the test to turn on. I guess that is by biggest question, Why won't the test run?

Default No, I am not reclearing the codes because...

I don't have any. I drove the car about another 30 miles today and still nothing. All of my othere readines codes are set except for my cat. converts and O2 Sensors. I got the O2 sensor heating to pass. These are the only two holding me up from inspection.

Default Got these codes today...

Is this a sign of bad front O2 sensors? Is there anything else that would cause these codes like a boost leak or a vacuum leak?
