  • Midland gearbox revision/exchange

    Hello dear forum community have n R50 Cooper with 5 gear gears here engine is chipped and brings according to performance report round 140 hp. The gears is a Midland , this kracht very strong in reverse gears otherwise it does not make any problems up to now. Basically the first question I ask myself is it is possible to install the gear 5 gears into my mini or does not fit that ? Unfortunately could not find any concrete information about it yet. The other possibility w of course to order a gear kit in England, i.e. the replacement shafts, seems to be everything except the 5 and the reverse gear, are these absolutely necessary? If yes, where? Is there a concrete instruction or other for the gear or the shaft/gear change? I am happy about the answers and hope there are not too many questions

  • Mini one 1.4 95ps 7.2007 runs bad

    Hello guys. I have the mini are October and he annoys me so slowly. I constantly have the problem that the motor control light goes on. Lamdasonde on kat is always the mistake.

He does not attract power incidence in the low speed range when I have the The second one is the tire pressure indicator on although there is enough air on it everywhere. 2,2bar ! I hope you can help me

  • Mini Cooper S R53 Consulting

    Hello dear mini community, at the moment I drive a VW up that comes away as soon as a buyer has been found. I have been thinking about buying a Mini Cooper with or without S as its successor, but I am very unsure of it. Actually, the Mini would be my dream of the perfect car, would not be the many negative reports. One reads on the Internet very much how bad they are from technology and a workshop stay in principle is self-evident. In the 5 years with my up I have never done anything else than to appear on time for my inspection, which is why the change makes me a bit afraid. How serious are the defects really? Are there really more than just inspections on me at which something is changed? If I decide for a used R53 I have already selected for myself the following points for which I think the important ones are or I still have questions: -Year of construction after 2004 best 2006 I am currently a student and drive about 15,000 a year. The car has to last until the end of my studies so about 50,000 km. Is it enough to buy a mini with 150,000 then I would be at 200k after his term. A couple thought up to 200 you could drive him well before his pension. -The Mini Cooper with 116ps should be enough for me from the performance however I find the optics not as beautiful as with the S. So I wonder how much is in the maintenance g And if they have the same defects. The Cooper probably have less mechanical parts that can break because of lack of compressor. -All say only that he swallows if you give it to him correctly. But how does it look with the consumption under normal circumstances if you switch nicely at 2500. -Pay insurance no gear damage which should often happen? To sit on so much money with a car where it is clear from the beginning that something like that comes Before I buy a very unreliable car, I would look at one of my alternatives, such as the MX-5, Audi TT Coupe, Smart Roadster. For another hot competitor, the Audi A1, my budget is not yet rich.

I am looking for new summer tyres and now I have found which ones but a bit irritated because on my stands 205 45 zr17 88w and where I want to buy now stands only 205 45 r 17 88w.

  • Mini beginners needs help 🙂

    Hi, I’m the Max 21 years old and I’m looking for my own car for the first time, until then I drove my mother’s car (Honda Jazz), or my motorcycle (r6), quite a lot, since I now need a car early because of a new job and that quite quickly, I look like crazy. I don’t want to spend too much I think 8000 should be enough, looking for mobile under any brands I found then 2 minis where I thought to myself actually much cooler than such a typical se at ibiza the one year 2010 with 5000 Km and the other 2006 with 18000 Km. Both look very well maintained, but in 2006 I wonder if this can be with so few Km? I hope with someone can help and say what to the 2 offers Thank you http://suchen.mobile.de/…/details.html?… http://suchen.mobile.de/…/details.html?…

  • to open the passenger door only from the inside – who knows the problem?

    my mini-cooper, built year + purchase in 2004, now has 8 years on the hill with 39000 km drive, – I have had so far NEVER any problem, – but now: the passenger door can only be opened from the inside for some time, – from the outside there is no lock (so only to open with remote control) … if I activate the remote control, even the door button at the driver’s side opens, – not the one at the passenger’s door. in the workshop one spoke of “door covering must be removed, – d he electricity supply has to be checked” – no exact information about the costs, i.e. TEUER – a well-known person who has the same problem on another car, one called cost of approx. 250 euro! because I actually have to have the possibility to enter also on the side of the driver (been parked before, or the driver door could already be frozen) I ask first, before I even think about such a cost, HERE about whether someone has experience with it…bin for j eden Ratschlag gratifying!!! lg gabi

  • Mini one R56 engine no longer running

    Hello together, am new here, I bought in January 2020 a Mini R56 one 1.4 with 95hp year 2008 with 162tkm. Bin hobby screwdriver and have replaced before the Tüv test the following parts: Brake complete, lamda probe before Kat, both cam wave sensors, coolant temperature sensors, spark plugs, air filter, oil, oil filter and rib belt. Chain without audible noise. Tuv passed without defects. Now to my problem, My daughter drives in the 30s zone stops at a junction, engine stops and starts no more. Starter runs, no ignition spark, when the start attempt smells like gasoline. No error message in the memory. No lamp lights up, which could indicate a fault. With second key the same. fuses engine room and passenger compartment all tested and good. Compression on all fours between 12-14 bar. Control unit submitted after verification found no error! Battery exchanged no change. Has a professional of you a tip that I could look at the still? LG into the forum, am new here.

  • Exhaust “plobbt”

    Hello, I drive a MINI S (R56). Occasionally the engine “plobbs” when it’s up (especially from the 1st to the 2nd gear and from the 2nd to the 3rd gear), sometimes when it’s fast, sometimes even when it’s cozy. I know the “plobbing” from the JCW and other sports cars (or tuned Prollo carts), but I didn’t know that the Cooper S could do the same. How does this pop-up actually come about? Can you deliberately provoke it or avoid it? Or is it even a technical error? Thank you for your answers!

  • rusted screws in engine compartment quality from BMW

    My Mini Diesel BJ 2008 with 40 000 km, well-kept carport car has totally rusted screws in the engine compartment. I am totally scared when I saw this. BMW rejects warranty because only the “look” has changed! In an accident with a polo the so-called bumper split up like a yoghurt cup in the back. At the polo there was nothing to see. Attention with mini-buy! That was my last car vin BMW-Group. I am sick of it!
