To be honest, I dont know if ISTA will run a vehicle check after codes are deleted. Once the PAD mode is reactivated, it only takes seconds to finish the operation which makes me think that complete vehicle check is not automatically performed. Might be worthwhile to press that button so ISTA will run or trigger self diagnosis on all the modules.
Mixture control codes can be trickier as these might only pop up during operation. Permanent SAE codes wont be cleared before root issue is rectified, system passes self diagnosis and initiates healing counter.
I hear you mate. I like to do all the work I can do myself as well. It gives you great insight to vehicle and helps you better understand operational characteristics and faults in the future.
