TLC Package/Warranty/Service

[blessedpinky]

Hi

Wondering when mini has to go for first service. Have TLC pack, mini a year old roundabout June and have done almost 2,500 on the clock.

Also do I have to contact mini warranty if I have changed my registration plate? Has anyone got the number...

The dealer where I got my mini was really crap... they were more interested in getting the money and for a newbie..it can be a bit daunting trying to suss out all the formalities.

Thanks for the help

It should tell you when it needs a service when you first start the car
Either :
On first gen - the mileage countdown in the speedo on ignition start
On 2nd gen - in the rev counter on start up (on my Dooper its 12000 miles)

If your mileage is still low by the time the car gets to 12/18 months old, speak to your dealership as they may still do the service under TLC for you.

To change your reg :
Change it with your dealership, so the service dept recognise the car
Change it with MINI Customer Service - 0800 083 6464 (they change it with MINI Emergency also)
And if necessary change it with MINI Finance (they will send you a form to sign)

Hope that helps a bit

... supa dupa, gr8 help, shall do the phoning 2moz. Already contacted insurance co, have to pay £15 for admin to go through.. breakdown serv no prob, they cover you so no change there..any other peeps I need to tell you can think of?

Just f/up 'Q' dealership, if I'm going to use a different one to where I made purchase, what do I need to do?

Has anyone ever got a new reg mark? if so, how did you go about selling the previous. Off to Halfords to get the new plates made up. Is it better to get them to screw or stick them on? I wanna be able to take it with me should I get another car in the future.. but for now, sticking to my mellow yellow...she's ace
