Cruise control and speed limit failure

• Add to quote

Hello everyone, I have bought my 2016 Mini Cooper in the March last year, since then once in the while I get a fault coming up saying "Cruise control failure - Please visit your local authorised service". Haven't been too bothered with it as it only shows up then disappears, and cruise control works just fine. It shows once in a while, normally whenever I start the car and then goes away pretty much immediately. Today, after I refuelled my beast cruise control and speed limit failure came up, but then like usual it has gone away, but now it started to worry me. I saw a few people had that issue, but I don't know what to do with it. It is a 2016, 1.5 Mini Cooper in Manual pre-facelift.  

You need the car diagnosed, fault codes read, to determine what the cause is. Could be a number of things so guessing isn't helpful. The faults will still be in memory, so MINI or any good garage can check it for you. Also there's diy code scanners, not sure if you're into that though!  

I've got mine own OBD2 scanner, so I could check for history of fault codes if you know an app allowing me to check it. I've thought I could diagnose it, but my mechanic didn't see anything and I wasn't sure if going to Mini would help much.  

I think BimmerCode does a scanner version, which might work with your adapter. I use ISTA+ myself, but that's the dealer software. Taking it to MINI will likely get you the answer, but they charge a lot just to test it! Can you find a local BMW/MINI specialist indy garage? They would have the same dealer level diagnostics needed, hopefully at a sensible price. May even check it for free if they do the repair.  

I'm in Suffolk close to Essex, but there isn't a BMW/Mini specialist in my town or near. Ive seen the Bimmerscanner been advised to test ABS sensors with it. I wondered whether that wouldn't go under the warranty.  

Your car's in warranty!?? If it's a MINI warranty just get it into the dealer, your cruise fault should be fixed free I would imagine. If you have a MINI Used 12 month warranty, report it quick and I think they'll sort it.  

I don't have any warranty that I've bought myself but I wondered whether the electrical faults don't have longer warranty.  

Ohh I see. No, unless you got 12 months when you got it last March, your out of luck mate. Only paint gets longer than the 3 years mechanical warranty.  

Will have a check with OBD2 scanner for fault codes tomorrow then.  

Normal cruise or adaptive cruise?  

Normal cruise  

Sunny14 said: I had the same issue with my 2016 Mini, started with 'cruise control failure' for a few seconds. Gradually the time the message would appear kept increasing followed by 'limit speed failure'. And then I noticed that when the message was on, the steering will loose all the controls on the wheel (media vol up/down, change track/radio stations...etc) and also if the lights were on in the eve, the steering will black out as well. As discussed on the forums and suspected, it was the slip ring at fault. Took my car to the garage (Cazoo) under 90 day warranty and they replace the slip ring free of charge. Its been a couple of weeks now and (touch wood) the issue is resolved. If your car is under any sort of warranty, get it fixed there. I have seen second hand slip rings on ebay for around £50 but changing it yourself can be costly as it involved fiddling with the steering wheel air bag (have to disconnect the battery, discharge and the air bag itself is hard to remove apparently). I would assume a new slip ring from BMW or dealer would be costly and they would charge a hefty amount to replace, although apparently, reading the forums it seems that BMW did replace some slip ring FOC as it became a known issue. Good Luck! Click to expand...

So the dreaded message has come back for the third time!! Cazoo replaced the whole SZL (Steering Angle Sensor which has the slip ring, indicator/wiper stalks) unit but the wheel is loosing the controls when adjusting the steering wheel forwards and backwards. Might be a loose wire this time but I am really getting fed up now :-( Anyone in south west who can give me hand with trying to replace the steering wheel cable please?

R53 Cruise retrofit?

• Add to quote

Evening all, I'm currently looking at getting an R53 Cooper S as a daily and found a few which don't have cruise fitted as standard but otherwise look ideal. Can anyone advise if its as simple as just a set of buttons, brake+clutch switch and it coding to the car? I have only been looking at facelifts with the 3 spoke wheel if that helps?  

I don't know the honest answer. But can tell you that cruise control won't work without the other MFSW controls for the stero. If you decide to give it a whirl, I have all the MFSW kit that I no longer need so drop me a pm..  

As ever, Google is your friend... https://www.conrad-anderson.co.uk/products/view/cc174710103/wizard:cruise-control Not sure if it's what you are after though? Sent from my SM-A520F using Tapatalk

Turn off adaptive cruise control

• Add to quote

Mini f60 Can ANYONE tell me how I switch off “adaptive CC” and use regular CC so that I control it and it doesn’t slow on its own? I want to press set and determine for myself when to cancel or slow down…I can’t seem to find info regarding this. Would this be something I need to purchase a diagnostic toggle for? Does anyone one know?  

Un appui long sur une des touches du réglage de la distance, cela supprime le CC adaptatif  

On mine I just hold down the button that adjusts distance for a few seconds and that disables it. It is enabled by default which is annoying - especially as it is always getting confused on mine and suddenly deactivating cruise control completely. When this happens it feels like it suddenly drops the anchors - dangerous on the highway when you have someone driving up your klanger!  

I have the same problem. A message is displayed that you can switch to cruise control without distance detection, although I can't fathom how to do that. Does anyone know how to do this?
