Well, to cut a long story short my 02 Cooper has now gone through its second gearbox and needs a 3rd replacement after only 77,000 miles. Previous owners changed the last one but its run out of warranty by 3 months
Pretty sure the replacement they had was a midland box. Im wondering if it is possible for me to replace the 2nd nackered box with a Getrag box? Im trying to keep the cost donw as much as possible so the dealership is a no go.
Any help is urgently needed and very much appreciated. I need to get the car on the road a.s.a.p.
On the other hand, should I cut my losses and trade in for a newer model? As the power steering pump has now started to play up and the airbag light is on
Thing is I still have a few years of payments left on my AA car loan and i cant see myself any better off from trading in, other than having a new and hopefully fully functional MINI.
Thanks
Dan
