2016 Clubman SD

[EatSuru]

Greetings everyone,

This is my inaugural post here. Yesterday, my 2016 Clubman SD stalled and is now inoperative. While driving to work as usual, without any prior indications, the collision system indicated a malfunction, subsequently followed by a defect in the stability control system. At this juncture, the vehicle decelerated progressively and the engine ceased operation. The RAC retrieved my vehicle but indicated that their system displayed numerous errors, primarily related to communication issues.
I am seeking suggestions for initial steps and plan to schedule an appointment with a small specialist for diagnostic purposes; nonetheless, I am curious if there are prevalent issues similar to this one.


Thank you.

is probably attributable to battery issues.

I was anticipating your visit. I shared the same opinion; however, he assessed the battery, which indicated it was functioning properly, and it also failed to jump-start from his pack or the van. I had previously experienced alternator problems that resulted in unusual electrical troubles; yet, he reiterated that the jump start should have initiated the engine. I am enquiring whether there are any unusual minor features that could lead to these symptoms.

Could this be a grounding problem?

There may be an issue with the ground connection. Consider connecting a jumper lead from the negative battery terminal to the engine block to see if any response occurs. I also possess a 2016 Clubman SD, which I recognise to be quite complex. Additionally, verify that the ground wire located at the centre rear of the rocker cover is not damaged.

If you have difficulties, feel free to send it to me; I am confident I can resolve it.

Thank you, I will conduct some preliminary checks tomorrow and will reach out if I encounter difficulties.
