My 2010 Clubman S is in the shop getting its 2nd CAS module. The 1st one went shortly after I purchased the car new. Fortunately it's still in warranty, however in both cases I'm out of a car over a week. It takes them a couple of days to figure it out then another to order and program.

Is this a common problem or am I just lucky?

 

what is a CAS ?

 

Car Access System. The thing the key fob talks to to run the car.

 

I just had this problem diagnosed for my '09 Clubman S. Talk about crazy! All my dash hazard lights started going off, speedo was jumping all over the place, took it to an independent mechanic and he had no idea what was wrong. Took it to the dealership and they took a week to diagnose- just got the call this morning that it's a bad CAS module, but they don't know if that's the root of the problem. I'm out of warrantee of course, so I'm looking at 1200.00 plus! damn...
