Hey, John, sorry about the problems but here's what you do. Call MINI of Peabody, talk to Dave in parts. He's a great guy and most helpful. He'll order you a new hatch handle/license light assembly. He'll also ask what color your car is 'cause the assembly in black is @ $75.00 and painted differently, twice that. Yes, you arelucky to have a LY/B MINI so the black will be just fine. Actually, it'll make SCAR-GO even more of a legend.

Then, because he's Dave and Peabody is Peabody, he asks, "What else is up?"

I tell him about the gear squeek. "Hold on a minute," says Dave. Soon, I'm chatting with a tech who suggests that I remove the airbox, locate the shift linkage, and hit it with Zep 2000.

10-4

And folks wonder why this dealership is so freakin' popular.

Lawdy, Lawdy, the Cross I bear.
