whilst driving over the last few months my engine has been cutting out,i lose all dashboard features,dials,indicators everything.No digital warning nothing everything just goes.I cruise to a stop and restart and off I go its weird theres nothing then it just starts and goes.I have had numerous diagnostic checks that come up clear.The 2 options I have been given is either my ignition coil or just a software problem.I have no other problem with the engine it just cuts out.This has happened 4 times in the last 1000 miles any help would do thanks

Wouldn't do any harm to check with dealership if there is any software update as suggested , eliminates that possibilty .

sounds like there is a bad connections somewhere or possible ignition switch fault if everything is loosing power

Hi, i have similar experience. twice to be exact. First was after i had my 407 for a year. 2nd was a year later. Sent to authorised dealer the day it decided to "knock off dead" and as you mentioned.... checks revealed nothing. Last Monday, it started to reappear but this time, it did not die.. it just lose all power except on ideal rpm moving at 5km/hr. stepping on the accelerator makes no difference...switch off and on and its back to normal. An hour later, it returns... send to dealer. Technician cannot find anything wrong less a so call permanent fault report stating the Oxy sensor need replacement but not sure if this is the culprit.
