Okay, so I pick my car up from the dealer tomorrow. They ended up having to change the VANOS unit! There was one in the country, and luckily I got it. They first changed a VANOS sensor of some type (cam position I believe), and that did not fix it, so they ended up changing the whole unit. It worked though. It has been almost 2 weeks without my car...it is weird!

Thanks for posting. I recently had same errors as you. DSC malfunction, DBC malfunction, etc., along with an increased emissions error, and car put into reduced power state. I was initially told by dealer it was the Vanos solenoid. After looking through and seeing these posts, I called the dealer and mentioned checking the Idle control valve. Picked up my car after the weekend, and the repair invoice made no mention of repairing a Vanos solenoid, but did specify the replacement of the idle control valve. Thanks!
