Can you give us a little more information? Like was the car sitting for a long time? Did it ever over heat? Here is what I found about the codes:

2A3C = VVT Motor Supply Voltage (Bank 1)
Not really sure what this is, could be a bad relay going to the Valvetronic Motor?
24A3 = Could not find a code.

2AA8 = Fuel Pump Speed Too High or Low; Fuel Pump Emergency Operation; Fuel Pump Over Temperature Condition
This is what my Bentley Service manual told me. Im assuming you may need a new pump. Searches of the code online however revert me to DISA unit inside the car.

2AD0 = Transmission Control System MIL Request
This one is a bit tough to pinpoint. Folks at this thread replaced a Crankshaft Position Sensor and it worked for him.

CD99 = Could not find a code but a couple threads mentioned that your mechanics sleeve needs to be properly seated.
https://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1136758 and https://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=918949

2DEC = Powermanagement Exhaustive Discharge/ Powermanagement Defective
Battery dead or cable to front box bad. Make sure to check the battery and that it is working and not too old. Check the IBS as well as the cable.

2E87E = Could not find this.

2EE3 = Engine Coolant Temperature Gradient Too High
This indicates that your coolant temperature shot up really high. Maybe the car got overheated or a sensor went bad?

Give us some more information and hopefully others can chip in to say if they have experienced any of these codes themselves.

After speaking to mechanics it seems the car overheated once or multiple times before.
