P0106 and P0206 Combo issue
Good Afternoon.
Driving my car today after leaving it parked for a week I came up with a CEL. Had to drive it a little bit to get back home to pull it and it was a two-fer, P0106 and P0206 (Cylinder 6 injector open circuit) No obvious drivability issues or rough idle noted after the code.
I was no stranger to the P0106, I struggled for quite a long time with it when I had an 82mm TB, and fixed it by going back to the 80mm. The P0206 is puzzling. I tried to do some research and doesn't seem like that code comes up very often. If it's a dirty injector I guess I'll replace it, but I'm not sure if the P0106 caused the 206 code or vice-versa. Still getting ready to dig in but wanted to see if anyone else has had this issue before?
Extra context: S/C belt shredded on the road the week prior, threw an ESP dash warning. I recently repaired that and drove out to the airport soon after which is where it sat for a week. There wasn't anything on the dash to reset, so I figured I was good. Not sure if that's related but I doubt it.
Any help or next steps would be awesome... I have STAR so I'll start there.
Thanks!

Cleared codes last night and didn't come on again during my drive in today, Clearing adaptations in STAR as a next step and then I'll keep an eye on it.

My fuzzy memory, for what it's worth, I seem to recall a random injector code after I did some work on the car, then an overnight battery unplug solved it. Computer glitch, who knows, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!
