Yeah, we know.  Fix the first one.  The second one will magically change
into something else - fix this, and it will show you another one.

Fix _that_ one, and you've got your problem.

BTDT.

The book says to deal with the codes one at a time and to deal with the
first one displayed _first_, then redisplay the others.  It's one of
the few bits of genuine wisdom in all of Audi's documentation.
