Hello everyone again,

Im currently working on my car a 2010 535i x-drive E61.
I decided to tackle a few maintenance items as soon as I got it, such as;
-Valve cover gasket (Old gasket was not leaking at all, but the gasket would start to get a bit hard already)
-Oil filter housing assembly filters ( I assumed they were leaking cause the whole front of the engine was drenched with a thick layer of oil)
-New Serpentine belt (old one was drenched in oil along with the whole front of the engine)
-Pulled out & cleaned the 2 venos sensors. ( They were just covered in clean oil when I pulled them, so wiped them cleaned & dried them)
-Cleaned the intake ports with CRC intake & turbo cleaner by hand with a wire brush. ( It had a thick layer of carbon already)
I broke the top radiator hose that goes from the reservoir (passenger side) to the top left side of the radiator (Driver's side) also Broke the Top left side radiator hose (Driver's side) that goes to the oil filter / water housing. ( Driver's side).

I'm still waiting on the 2 radiator hoses to come in & install them to button up all the trim.
Also waiting on spark plugs as they haven't been changed yet.

I decided to start the car up today with those parts in mind, just to see how bad i messed up lol.
I was anxious to get it started again, It did start fine but threw a few codes these are the most important:

-3100
-2ABC
-P0238

It has the car on limp mode, Could this be because of the low coolant and the missing hoses?
Could this be because the spark plugs not changed yet?
What do you think with could be?
Please help.
Thank You.

Is there a tune on the car. If so check MAP sensor and/or ensure tuner is plugged back up and ensure it's plugged up, clear code and see if the codes returns. They all are for the same issue

There is no Tune on the car, the car is stock all the way around.
