Hello dear community, I’m completely new here and hope to get a new idea here, what’s going on with my mini. Mini is built in 2010, has now about 70,000 km on it. The following problem: The fun started at start up in the morning. There he has massively jerked, threshold swing, engine light on. After a short time (without me driving off), however, he has caught himself and the threshold was ok again. When driving himself and also in idle you notice nothing. This happens now for weeks, it is also no structure to recognize, sometimes it is when he stood in the garage for three days, that the engine light is concerned, sometimes not. It also happens that he does not spit out a warning message for several days, then again at every start. At MINI they have the error “002C01 fuel high pressure, plausibility has read out? Now also my work has had a lot of troubles to make it happen again. I can make a good deal with it again.

Engine control light Error Lambda probe. Need real help Hello, at my Mini the day before yesterday the yellow engine control light lit up. I then read out the wrong with WOW. Out comes: Motronic error code 2A56 Lambda probe, heating power behind catalyst series 1. Motronic error code 2ACB Lambda probe before catalyst, connection. Motronic error code 2A8B Lambda probe before catalyst, calibration cable. EOBD error code P2414 Lambda probe error exhaust sample (series 1 sensor 1) EOBD error code P2414 Lambda probe positive current balance current circuit open (series 1 sensor 1) I am not smart from it and am grateful for any help. Besides, my climate since the error does not work anymore.

Hello together, I am looking forward to the decision to have a fun car. My everyday car is a Mini Cooper Countryman. The R58 JCW has always been my dream car. I find the current Fiesta ST very cool. I imagine to make trips with the car from time to time, maybe even road trips to other countries. Now I am faced with the choice: Should it be a Mini JCW with approx. 100,000 km, which I like extremely well and has a guarantee, or a Ford Fiesta ST with 50,000 km, also with guarantee? I rarely drive the MINI and would have the car fully covered in insurance. I also value a relatively inexpensive maintenance. I have looked at pretty much all reports about the ST and the Mini and still can not decide. Since I am also a big technical fan, I find the ST quite nice. The driving values look neatly too. Which car would you grab? Is the Mini already too old and vulnerable to technical problems? I don’t want to make a headache with the purchase. Thanks already!

Hello together My girlfriend has a Mini Cooper, built in 10/2006 R56 1.6 as first owner. So far the car ran without problems and was always with BMW to customer service. For about 600 km the MKL lights up and as error stands 0x283D VANOS outlet: adaption stop in the error memory. Can sometimes be deleted and either comes back immediately or it takes about 2-3 days. Camshaft sensor has been renewed and cross-changed. BMW excludes the control chain. Recently the valve cover seal has been renewed and there they meant the chain looks good. Sit tight. Have taken off the valve cover and looked at it. Looks really good. Chain tensioner is relatively new. What else could it have on it? BMW offers a fault search but says in advance that it can go in the 4 digit range. Does my girlfriend want to avoid that. Can it possibly be the control chain or maybe the control times no longer agree and you just have to adjust them again? Many thanks for your support.

Hello dear community, I would like to buy a new vehicle and have come across the mentioned Mini (Cooper S 1.6 Facelift). I have already contacted the seller, which is very transparent as far as the condition of the vehicle is concerned. In addition, he has sent me invoices from workshops, which is why I would like to ask you a few questions. Basic data / information: So, now on the actual questions of the workshop invoices are listed items … In addition, still pictures of the service department where inspections were carried out at scheduled and regular intervals, since many points are provided with an “X” instead of a tick. Since I do not want to buy the cat in the bag (after inspection of course) and avoid follow-up costs in the form of repairs, if not even an engine damage, I hereby turn to you. Of course, I am also open for general information, hints and risks to this vehicle (model). Thank you in advance!

hello together, I have a mini cooper r50, bj 2001, hsn 0005 uns tsn 719. For a few days I have (again) problems with the electronics: – the glass roof can be sporadically opened – I can blink, so from outside you can see the flashing lights, but the flickering in the car sometimes doesn’t appear. and manchaml appears the clacking in the car, although I don’t blink at all – tire pressure lamp is suddenly permanently on – the car can’t be locked, the buttons unlock themselves after the lock attempt – the tapo lighting is only sporadically related to what? I ask for urgent advice. was a month ago still with the mechanic, because I only had to unlock the problem with the self-contained one. the problem was solved. now it’s back there and with even more problems. pls help me. PS, since these problems are there at once, I hear in the car a minute can’t find out how it works.

Hello Our Mini is making problems today. On the highway suddenly no power and on 3 yl. Troubleshooting so far : spark plugs new ignition coils replaced with each other injecting injecting valves removed Everything ok Funke da Sprit da And the problem always remains on Zyl 3 error memory Ignition oscillators yl 3 camshaft adjustment should not reach (probably sporadically) compression. Zyl 1.2 and 4 ca 11-12bar and yl 3 8.5bar I am questioning my also 8.5 bar should be enough for ignition :/ Someone no idea ? I would otherwise start the valve lid and then tear your head down

Hello, my sister had a motor damage at the beginning of the week with her Mini Cooper S, BJ 11/2010 with 184hp (no idea what the engine is called). Now yesterday the workshop called and assessed the damage: Control chain torn and eaten into the engine block, 1st and 2nd cylinder broken, the pistons smashed the valves. The gearbox probably also has a damage, according to BMW a new engine has to be in there because a repair is hardly worth it. But now it comes down: the car has just 60,000km down, the transmission and the turbo have been changed to Kulanz already half a year ago. It can’t be that now already the gearbox is broken and at 60,000km the chain simply jumps over? Do you still think you can hope that BMW takes over the new engine and the transmission also on Kulanz? The dealer has written to BMW but still not received an Antowrt. On each case this will be the first and last mini in my family. The car is just 4 years old and it can’t be now half of the transmission and the second go up already after a turbo again.

Hello,l I’ve already searched the forum, but found no answer to my question. Although I bought the original Y-cable from BMW, the sound via Bluetooth is much better. Does anyone know this problem? Does anyone know if you can set something there etc.? To the info: I have the Radio Visual Boost with Navi etc. Software update to the latest update I have already made. Equilizer is on standard. Thanks and many greetings
