Warnings on car

Post image
11 Upvotes

I posted in here recently about my Mini having a break pads need replacing even though I had it serviced and MOTd with no advisories to do with that. However, on the service they mentioned about my battery percentage sitting at 68%. Since then my car has come up with further 'issues.' Was wondering if anyone has come across this with their MINI and whether it could be the battery needs replacing?

She's a 2018 plate and I believe it could be the original battery in the car but unsure.

I don't know much about cars so any help is appreciated. Thank you.

I am loving it.

She looks awesome.

These are only temporary until I get a new paintjob maybe after the new year.

These are just covering the damage from the idiot that ran into my Rini when she was parked.

So I washed her today and got her some new stickers for the doors 😍🥰

Metal rattle on cold starts

My Mini Clubman 1.5 makes a metal rattling sound on cold starts (only when cranking, sounds and runs great after). The starts after the first cold start are normal. The car also shakes/vibrates when cranking. Could it be the engine mounts?

Fuse panel replacement?

Thumbnail
gallery
5 Upvotes

So I took on the challenge of restoring a flood damaged car and judging by the fuse panel it needs replacing as I’m sure many other things too. I attempted to take a fuse out and it just crumbled as I was pulling it out. Salt water is so corrosive.

I was lucky enough to find a used fuse panel to replace it with, but I’m have some difficulty removing the connectors that plug into the back of the panel.

I see a blue lever at the end of each row and it moves if I pull it, but the connectors don’t budge or move when I try to pull the wire out.

What am I doing wrong? Do they come out or do I just cut the wire and splice it with the vehicles wire? Does this new fuse panel need programming?

Any suggestions are highly appreciated!

We had a lovely (sport)drive up and down a mountain in Portugal, enjoyed the view of the coastline up there. And then we went back down the mountain to the AutĂłdroma race track for a lunch with a view. I love this car so much!

Stop car from disconnecting charger when unlocked

• Upvotes

Hi all,

Any electric owners know how to stop the car from disconnecting from my car charger when I unlock the car?

Getting rather annoying now because I have the car key in my apple wallet ie when I get close to the car it unlocks the charger and stops the charge. If I don’t realise it has unlocked then I dont get any charge. First annoying thing I’ve seen with this car.

My Mini-clubman 2019 S All4 needs your help!

20 Upvotes

Hey everybody this is my 2019 Clubman S All4 - racing green. I recently got new wheels for it, as well as received some small items for Christmas as seen in the pictures. New pedal covers, ignition cover, phone holder, air pressure caps, and windshield wiper front clips.

I've seen a lot of builds that "De-chrome" their mini. I'm looking to do the opposite to mine.

I was wondering if anyone had recommendations for the car. Here's my current list of purchases I am debating on making tonight:

  • Gray Union Jack tail lights
  • Gray Union Jack sunroof decal
  • black and chrome Union Jack lock covers

If you have any recommendations please send them my way!
