Renault Master Diesel Starting and Transmission Issues

I own a 2015 Renault Master with a Diesel engine and 135,000 km on the clock. I'm experiencing some issues with my vehicle. It starts briefly and then stalls, and the transmission slips or shifts erratically. Initially, it is hard to start, and once it does start, it stalls again. After starting it again, the AMT won't engage, showing fault codes 4073, 1525, 0002, 50ce, D410, and 9535. Interestingly, it runs fine for a few days, but if left overnight or longer, the problem seems to worsen. I've already changed the glow plugs and the glow plug module. Could anyone provide insights or solutions to these issues?

Start by checking the battery and alternator to ensure they are providing adequate power, as low voltage can cause erratic behavior in the transmission and engine management systems. Clean and secure all battery connections and ground points. If the issue persists, consider having the battery and alternator tested. Let me know how it goes or if you have any further questions.

Since the battery and alternator seem to be in good condition, the next step is to inspect the fuel system for any blockages or leaks, as these can cause starting and stalling issues. Check the fuel filter and lines for any signs of clogging or damage. If the problem persists, it might be worth having the fuel pressure tested. Keep me updated on your progress or if you have any further questions.
