These are stored codes.
Do you have a specific issue you are trying to diagnose? If no, I would clear these codes and check again later of they show up again.

Solo Wing,
. I did erase them and re-scanned my vehicle and they were there again. I also have two other codes now due to the idiot who just put my set of tires on and they are these other 2....giving me a total of 6 ABS fault codes but also a message saying that my tire pressure system is inoperable!

Ignore the last two codes.

I will research the other codes later in the morning.

In the meantime check for codes in the Direct Select module A80.

Relative to code 5994, does the steering stiffen at high speed, as it should be?

Maj. Dundee,
Thank you so much for further guidance! Bare with me....I have zero clue what fault 5994 is as described in my post and have zero clue as to its functions and location even though you've pointed it out. I've driven my car like an ******* maybe twice at speeds of over 120 she was perfect in every way that I could've known or expected her to be..(.and not because she's a Mercedes-Benz I'd use the same reference if it were a B210 Im not prejudice or bias lol.) What I was meaning was for what I know about cars, which is plenty enough to know when something isn't right.. just may not be experienced enough to pinpoint and solve on my own.. depends...also id like to mention since I've first posted she's began to kinda rough idle when previously she was completely silent. I APPRECIATE YOU AND ALL FUTURE GUIDANCE however I receive it. THANK YOU!
I feel like the more I drive her the more damage I'm somehow causing...

There is no component B210. How did you get this number?

Again, relative to code 5994, does the steering stiffen at high speed, as it should be?

Again, did you check for codes in the Direct Select module A80?

As a matter of fact, check for codes in all modules and if you find any you must tell what module they were stored in.

Also, please do not bunch all your text into one paragraph
