Peugeot 3008 start stop problem

Hi, I'm having trouble with the start-stop system in my 2014 Peugeot 3008 diesel with 15,579 km. Lately, the start-stop hasn't been working. I get an error stored, the engine shuts off unexpectedly sometimes, and the warning light pops up. I'm suspecting it might be related to the battery, maybe it's heavily discharged or defective? Any thoughts?

Good day. Have you considered the possibility of the battery's state of charge influencing the start-stop system's functionality? I encountered a similar predicament with my Peugeot 3008. Could you please furnish details pertaining to the diagnostic error codes that have been registered?

Thanks for the quick reply. I haven't had a chance to read the codes myself yet, but I'll try to get that done soon. When you had this issue, did the engine stall unexpectedly sometimes too, or was it just the start-stop not engaging?

Affirmative, the engine did indeed stall unexpectedly on occasion. Based on my experience, and given the symptoms you have described, I would recommend consulting a qualified automotive technician for a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation. It is plausible that a depleted or defective battery is the root cause, however, it is imperative to ascertain whether any underlying issues are contributing to the battery's discharge.

Okay, thanks for the advice. I appreciate you confirming that you had the stalling issue as well. I'll take it to a workshop and have them check the battery and for any other potential problems. Paid 290€ for a new battery and diagnostic. Cheers!
