Fault code opinions (more)...
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/5041/cdmvag.jpg"></center><p>My MIL lamp (check engine) initally came on for about a week with the dealer telling me that "it's this US gasoline" causing intermittent sensor problems. Sure enough, the MIL lamp went out after a week. About two days later, it came back on and stayed on to this day (about another week since it came back on).
I bought the VAG-COM software and cable from Ross-Tech and queried the engine module. The attached image is the screen capture containing the fault codes from the engine module.
I will be calling my friendly Audi dealer on Monday to read him the fault codes and get his opinion. Anyone have any ideas as to what these codes might mean? I guess I should also buy a shop manual for my Audi.
Thanks!

Pretty much looks like a bad O2 sensor...
I know they have heating elements, and that's what it looks like the ECU is complaining about. I think there's 1 per bank, so perhaps that's B1.
You may or may not want to get into the codes with your dealer - don't know how they'll react to your VagCom. (While I don't think that they should care, anyone who tells you the MIL light is bad gas and you should ignore it....well they don't rank high in MY book!)
I'd just drop in and have them read the codes while you wait, then schedule an appointment for them to fix the problem.
