It seems that your code 2-3-2 is long time fuel trim at limits at idle.
Clear the code and see if it comes back.

Well, as of today/tonight, after i played with the blinking box and reset everything, my problem when away.. Mind you my car is on E as well, so once I fill it up with gas we will see...

It still seems to idle a bit rougher than i'd like, but that maybe part of this car, i am still getting used to it...
