hmm, an oil catch can, I suppose I could install one, I'll probably buy it from a stateside retailer, because overseas shipping is murder.

As for the idle problem, it's no surging that I can tell. its kind of weird, I explained it the the MINI dealer, and they said it was probably old software, however it continues to haunt me with the newer software installed, like every once in a blue moon, after the engine is warm, it will miss and get kind of low RPM and rough at idle like a race car with a long duration camshaft. air filter seems to be in check, and when I blip the throttle, it returns to it's normal hum. I figured the two would be related. maybe I should just buy the Bentley service manual and throubleshoot it for a couple of weekends (grumble....grumble...grumble....)
