Mystery code P0234?

I have seen the code "P0234" a couple of times with my Peake tool but I can't find it in the Peake manual or in the Bentley MINI manual. It was not associated with a check engine light. Any ideas what it is? Thanks!

P0234 = overboost conditions

This code will not throw a CEL, but it will be stored in the ECU memory...

oops...I have another code (P0108) that I though was overboost as well. It will first shut down the DSC and store a code and then with will throw a SES light...weird! Thanks for the link rhawth99! -- Johan
