A common problem with Mini Clubman models (2010–2015) involves misfires caused by ECU-related failures, which can lead to persistent engine issues. These misfires may result in continuous rough idling or, in some cases, prevent the engine from starting entirely. Diagnostic scans often reveal fault codes such as:
- 002FA8: Cylinder 1 ignition combustion too short
- 002EFF: Cylinder 1 combustion misfire
- 002FAD: Cylinder 2 ignition combustion too short
- 002FEE: Cylinder 2 combustion misfire
- 002FB2: Cylinder 3 ignition combustion too short
- 002FEC: Cylinder 3 combustion misfire
- 002FAF: Cylinder 4 ignition combustion too short
- 002FED: Cylinder 4 combustion misfire
- 36E2: Monitoring 5v sensor outside valid range
- 2BD3: Monitoring Power Supply Sensor 2 CY320, which can lead to sensor errors, engine management light illumination, and eventual non-start.
These faults are typically linked to ignition system malfunctions, particularly affecting spark generation and causing significant performance problems.
