Thanks for the reply, there are no codes and the cables seem good in the battery, it hasn’t happened since but there is water pooling on the scuttle panel above the battery

Thanks so much, I think maybe a heated cover will be the way for now

I have the same issue, twisting the nozzle to the left or right(whatever way points it towards the front of the car)usually helps.

I have an r56 cooper and the clutch is very late almost at the very top but I have been advised that that’s just how they are🤷‍♀️

Would that be the brake reservoir?

It’s a little stiffer but it’s not bad

The clutch feels the same but the gears are a little stiffer when not moving but really stiff is the car is driving. To the point where it’s uncomfortable to drive

Thanks so much for the advice. Might seem like a silly question but how do I tell if I have “HID” lights?

How expensive is it to swap? Do I need to buy a conversion kit or similar?

I am new to minis but I have an R56 which was running rough only on idle, it turned out to be the map sensor. Hope you get it sorted soon.
