Intermittant yellow warning runflat & ABS

[5meodmt]

Was out for a drive last weekend and went down and up a hill and corner at 70odd and bounced a bit, nothing too major, but result of that both my ABS and runflat warnings came up constant and yellow.

Since then every time i get in the car 4 a drive they may be on, then the next time i drive the runflat warning is off and the ABS warning goes off after a short distance,but then i might drive for a few miles and notice they are back on again. and so it repeats

any idea, fault sensor? ive check tyre pressures all fine

[faster,Tobias!]

The Runflat sensor runs off of the ABS computer, so I would think that is where the issue is. Is it possible the bounce while cornering has shook a wire loose?

get the fault codes for the abs/stabliltiy ecu read as it might be a wheel sensor or connect fault.

Dont suppose your on the recall list are you for faulty wiring loom are you? There was a problem just like this caused by the wires shorting/grounding on the chassis.

dunno man, its a 53plate cooper bought from a localish garage 4 months ago, i will contact them and hope they can help, they did mention a 6 month warrenty when i bought the car.

Do i have to contact mini to find out if my car has a recall on it?

Dealers should know by the chassis number if it contains the effected wiring loom but then it could be something very different. If it has warranty then id get it checked sooner rather than later Hope you get it sorted quickly

i am having exactly the same problem
my car was involved in an accident a few mths ago. It took the BMW more that two months to repair it. Now, I have this problem.
I assume it could be a fault while they repair my car so I called them to ask them to check it, but they said they only repair bodywork and nothing to do with my brake. I argued that the repair worksheet clearly indicated that they have to remove my suspension and my car was in a very serious accident that it had to tow away (due to not able to brake)
My mini is one of the unlucky one that have to call back due to the fault u mention. I have it done twice! 1st time free, 2nd I have to pay for it.
Is so unfair.
Please give me some advice.
