First fault. Only a small one though!

I have noticed that my new Coopers engine temp gauge reads about half a segment over to my last Cooper.

It must be the sender unit as it already reads half a segment of the gauge when the ignition is turned on in the morning when the engine is cold.

I'll get my dealer to check it on Friday when I have my test drive in an "S".

Dealer sorted the fault!

The plug on the sender wasn't pushed home properly!

If the build quality of my new MINI is the norm now, then they have definitely sorted most of the problems!!
