Fellow JCW mates, hoping to get some feedback on my current situation. I’ve got a 2015 F56 JCW with just 32k miles on the clock. In the past month, my car has struggled to start. Immediately putting the blame on the battery, I purchased a new OEM replacement and installed. Shortly after installing I noticed the issue was still present. I toggle the start/stop as I would normally but no crank to the engine. I get the following fault/ error on my screen (see photo attached). Typically, after a few tries the engine cranks over. Tonight my luck ran out and my car no longer starts. Had to hire a hauler to tow it home 😔. With no factory warranty left I’d like to try and diagnose the problem and potentially repair myself. I want to assume it’s the starter as stated but considering my history with mini’s it’s never what it seems. Anyone else experience this on their F56, if so, what was the cause? Please help 💔😢

Ended up being the starter. Replaced it and turned the car in. The battery doesn’t necessarily have to be “reprogrammed” as the car was fine thereafter replacing the starter.
