I have been trying to find some answers related to this rattling noise from my N14 engine. This is a GEN 2 engine with a Timing Chain Noise or something within the timing components. I'd like to get some opinions related to this. Already have had the RECALL timing chain and tensioner...

Hi, I have a 2011 mini cooper countryman all 4 s. Half engine and engine light are continually on and engine misfires prominent. I changed my plugs, injectors, swapped coils (no difference and misfire didn't follow one), and changed the low-pressure fuel pump. The problem was still there. I got...

Hi all, It would be great to get your thoughts on a sound which is coming from the engine. We recently bought a Mini One R56 2013 1.6L with around 43,000 miles and we've noticed a ringing sound coming from the engine. I've outlined a few characteristics of the sound below to help: It's like...

I have Mini One D 2017. It has been regularly serviced (the last service was made a month ago). I haven´t noticed anything wrong with the car except for these black dots that seem to be sprinkling somewhere from the engine. Did anyone have a similar issue and can anyone tell me what this seems...

Hey I have been hearing a rattle only when at idle, as soon as some revs are put on it goes away. If I very carefully and slowly lift foot off accelerator too it goes away at idle some of the time. I only hear it when revs are under 1000 roughly any higher and it is gone. It seems to only appear...
