Just curious why the cooling fan on these doesn't run all the time ?
I'm on my third replacement pump now.

Anyone wired the fan to run constantly ? or is it a bad idea, might get CEL ?
cheers

Tritec vs Prince

First Generation MINI Cooper S

I heard from my local mechanic who has repaired many of my old BMWs that the Turbocharged 1.6 Prince engine is not the most reliable engine. Had one case where it took 3l of oil for 100km. Has someone had similar issues with the Prince engine? How does it compare to Tritec, any experience?
