The car died start again in the lot but idled very roughly so we left it. After the dealer did a service (oil change, plugs, all filters) they removed an aftermarket performance chip (Dinan) that was connected inline on air intake which we were unaware of. They cleared the errors and the car ran fine. They were unable to reproduce the issue. The charge was $300 for the diagnosis and chip removal. |

Bought this car used and the original battery was never changed out. Took it to an independent shop rather than the dealer to have it fixed and to have them give it a look over as I didn't quite trust the dealer at that point. Battery replaced, car is fine Driving in bumper to bumper traffic I noticed a warning light lit and it was the cooling system. I had been warned about stopping immediately if the light came on as it could mean having to buy a new engine. The radiator fan died and in traffic consequently the engine overheated since there was no ambient airflow over the radiator. Complained to the dealer that the car was just over a month old and the even if it wasn't certified, that they should replace it as they are a premiere MINI/BMW dealer in Honolulu. They agreed and all has been good since then. |

Found a huge puddle of coolant on the garage floor. Took into a local repair shop. Found that the Engine Coolant Thermostat Housing had a crack in it. The shop replaced the part and then found that the sensor from the new part from NAPA did not communicate correctly with the computer. Had to order a part direct from Mini (BMW) to fix the issue. So, how to begin? Goodyear lost parts to my Mini and couldn't find why my Mini had a check engine light after they finished working on it. My Mini then went to the dealer that said I had 3 oil leaks and a bad turbo. They said that 2 of the oil leaks were nothing to worry about. After leaving the dealer I took my Mini to another shop for a second opinion. They said that my turbo had a bad hose, I needed a new belt, and that the 2 oil leaks that were nothing are actually pretty substantial. All in I had to spend $1700 out of pocket. | ||

Rattle in Tachometer (replaced once already 6/23/2010.) Replaced again. A/C not as cold as it was. Found low charge by .3 lbs, but couldn't find leak. Driver side seat bolster left side ripped. Replaced seat bottom cover. Gap below secret compartment above glovebox. Fixed once already, same fit problem again after the radio was replaced under warranty. Replaced knee bolster -- deformed. Dash still squeaks / rattles at windshield. Found loose dash pins, corrected and insulated them. Seat belt chime occasionally will not shut off even if seat belt is latched. Nothing on the seat when this happens, so it's not the weight sensor wanting that seat buckled. I had it written up on RO so warranty will cover if it recurs. | ||
