Well now I actually have an FL D2 I've just got around to running VCDS.
Found an assortment of things, of unknown vintage, so I've cleared them and will see what reappears... 
The cleared faults included several (explainable) Alarm triggers plus:
17977 - Cruise Control Switch (E45): Implausible Signal P1569 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent (hardly a surprise  )
16684 - Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected P0300 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent (Cylinders 2 & 4 listed specifically, I'll see if that reappears)
01119 - Gear Recognition Signal 35-10 - - - Intermittent (ABS section)
00668 - Supply Voltage Terminal 30 53-10 - Supply Voltage Too Low - Intermittent (did have a flat battery at one point)
Couple of oddities though: 
1: HVAC 1 Fault Found:
00734 - Potentiometer in Central Vent (G142) 30-00 - Open or Short to Plus
This wouldn't clear.
I took a guess that this "could" relate to the hot/cold thumbwheel by the 3 top centre vents so wiggled it "aggressively" and tried again. It cleared. 
2: Immobilizer No Faults Found
or DTCs not supported by controller or a communication error ocurred
This communication error was there only sometimes when I queried the controller individually. Is it something to worry about?
