E280 Runflat indiciator inoperative error msg

Hi all
Yesterday I was presented with two error msgs whilst driving my car. See images below.



So, after stopping and starting the car, the messages disappeared. I even reset the settings to factory, but again the problem has arisen today.

I have fitted aftermarket 18" wheels and tyres, but that was over 6 months ago. Is there anyway to disable the runflat system or should I be doing something else?

Well, I just did a scan using my ThinkScan scanner specific to my model and found no faults, apart from a P2006 error (which I cleared. Will check again after a few days.)

Would a proper SDS scan do a better job? I have a local independent mechanic that has the SDS but that of course will cost $.

So no-one has ever had this issue before?

One FB reply I got was the front SAM unit/module? Or even a battery issue!
