changes?

[kawaman]

Hi everyone,
a couple of questions for the experts out there, on a cooper diesel 59 plate,(registered sept 09) will it still have the psa engine?, also will it still have the problematic dual mass flywheel, or was there changes by then?
cheers,
kawaman.

Yes it will have the PSA engine and yes it will have the dual mass flywheel.

ok, thanks for that, maybe avoid it then,.... a bit scared of clutch problems.

Imho, the DMF on the MINI is no worse than the DMF in any other diesel car - go on any car forum and you'll find people complaining about them. Most of the problems will arise as a result of driving style, namely from accelerating hard from very low revs and putting unnecessary strain on it.
