Hi
How did you get on with BMW and goodwill. My Mini is 03 41,000 miles and I am just waiting to hear what if any goodwill will be given on my replacement GearBox

BMW are so far refusing to replace it on a goodwill basis and therefore it is likely that I will have to take them to court if an agreement cannot be reached. I therefore need to compile as much evidence as I can that this gearbox is flawed and also require experts in the field to testify to this. I would like to hear from anyone therefore who has experienced similar problems.
