Well I took Topless' advice on the idea of too much oil (might as well start with the least expensive problem). At lunch today my tech put it on the hoist and let the oil drain for 1/2 hour (which we did not the first time) and then refilled it. Our guess was it probably had about a half of a litre too much. We drove it for half an hour and it's perfect, all the codes were cleared and have not come back since. Thanks to everyone who helped, it's appreciated.
