Airmatic Stored Codes - Recommendations?

My E55 has an ELM installed and currently ride height is fine. However, 50% of the time while I'm driving, I'll get an "Airmatic Visit Workshop" error. This seems to happen while taking a turn or accelerating.

I had a shop pull codes during my last oil change, and below was the output. I wish I knew how old some of these codes were to ensure they weren't left over from the ELM install. Anyway, any feedback on recommended next steps would be appreciated. The shop did nothing more than pull codes and say the ride height is fine. That obviously didn't help much.

Trying to figure out next steps...
1) Thinking about clearing these codes, wait until the warning happens again, then pull them again to see what is complaining currently
2) Are these common codes that folks see with failing sensors? Maybe a symptom of something else?
3) Maybe some of the ELM wiring has come loose?

Picture of scanner output:

Codes:
5120, B24/6 (Right rear body acceleration sensor): Signal failure
5130, B22/8 (Left front level sensor): Failure of both signals
5131, B22/8 (Left front level sensor): Signal implausible
5140, B22/9 (Right front level sensor): Failure of both signals
5141, B22/9 (Right front level sensor): Signal Implausible
5150, B22/3 (Rear axle level sensor): Failure of both signals

which ELM do you have?, I sometimes get this on mine, but very occasionally, this is with the ELM switched off also!

Same here. The car seems to drive fine, but I figure something is not happy now that I'm seeing codes. I'm always a bit paranoid about airmatic given some of the stories of airmatic failures while driving.

Hoping to figure the root cause and eliminate the Visit Workshop warnings.

Same ELM, sounds like a possible issue with the ELM if everyone has the same one!
