Chassis Stabilisation

Driving to work this morning on the M1 suddenly lots of yellow lights appear on the dash with an alarm for Chassis Stabilisation Failure or something similar. After a minute or two the alarm disappears and everything looks normal. A while later another alarm but this time for TPMS failure, again this alarm clears after a minute or two

The car feels no different and nothing happened immediately prior to the alarm as far as I know

A google suggests possibly a wheel sensor. I'll have to fire up ISTA/D and see if I can get any fault codes.

Has anyone had anything similar and if so what was the solution ?

BTW it's a 2012 car without tyre pressure sensors, the TPMS runs off the ABS sensors.

It's highly likely to be a wheel speed sensor.

I've encountered the same thing on other cars previously.

I too had exactly the same thing before.

Fired up ISTA/D last night and seems it's the left front sensor. Cleared all the faults, strangely on the way in to work this morning the fault didnt reoccur.

But no doubt the fault will return...
