Only issue so far is a very annoying metalic metal on metal sort of squeek from the rear end, audible in the car at all speeds. Seems to be caused by flexing (so changed in camber of road or bumps on one side not the other).

I've tried making sure the rear seats are locked in properly and nothing is lose in the boot, but to no avail.

Before a trip to the dealers, anyone got any ideas?

Hi Matt
My Clubman had a squeak coming from the rear too. I got my 15 year old son to sit in the back while I test drove it and we soon noticed the noise disappeared when he sat in the o/s/r seat.
on closer inspection, the noise comes from where the seat back sits against the body.
I dont think its the seat catch, as i lubed that.

Got rid of sqeak by putting small piece of card between seat back and body(temp repair til I can find time to take it to Mini!!) Hope this helps
