First read the stored codes exactly as they show. Write them down, noting whether a code is H or C
Then clear all codes and go for a drive. When you get home. Repeat the code reading and note taking.
Then post the results to this thread.
FYI. Many codes that get set reflect transitory commo issues that don't recur.

When that message is visible active handling is turned off. You still have traction control and ABS but AH is off. So how did you know that AH worked? Just flooring the throttle doesn't mean AH will activate even if it is turned on. To activate AH you have to throw the car into a corner so it is under or over steering by a certain amount. When the right conditions are met it will activate the brake at one of the 4 wheels.
