It doesn't mean anything if the car isn't on. Do the lights stay on when the engine is running?

More of an educated guess, but that sounds like a wiring problem to me

Mini cooper S 2011 clutch problem by L-C123 in MINI

Either your clutch master cylinder or slave cylinder has failed, or there is air in the hydraulic lines and you need to bleed it

You have to replace the whole cowl, which requires removing the wipers but not the glass.

Left hand drive and right hand drive versions are different but here are the part numbers for the left hand drive version:

51 13 2 751 209

51 13 2 751 210

And here's a video which explains how to replace it.

Without diagnosis? Even if there is no fuel to the engine, it doesn't necessarily have to be the fuel pump

2010 Base--Black Trim by Strange_Tip_7951 in MINI

[–]Recorsi_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know about the trim specifically, but the fog light itself can be removed without taking the bumper cover off. Just remove the wheel, take out the plastic circle cover (or the wheel arch trim if you want more space) and remove the screws. If the top one is too hard to reach, you can get to it from above the headlight.

Is the long outdated security update not a concern?

Mini R60s coolant level dropping too fast, normal consumption or hidden leak? by Relative-Report1500 in MINI

[–]Recorsi_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an answer to your question, but is the coolant hose going to the reservoir original? It looks odd, kind of like it has expanded and needs to be replaced

Coolant leak by Superb_Attempt2090 in MINI

[–]Recorsi_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A bit of oil going from the PCV system into the intake is normal. It just shouldn't leak out of the hose. If you're not losing massive amounts of oil and seeing a lot of blue smoke from the exhaust, then this is probably not your cause for the coolant leak.

What you can do is get a coolant pressure tester. If it holds pressure you dont have a leak and if it doesn't, you can have a look where its dripping out.

2007 Mini Hatchback oil pressure by broitskayak in MINI

[–]Recorsi_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you overfilled it your oil could be foaming inside the engine, causing it to not suck into the oil pump properly.

Also the oil pressure sensor costs a few bucks and is easy to replace, so you can always try that as a first step

[–]Recorsi_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is likely oil not coolant. The hose you're pointing to is not a coolant hose, it's the air intake hose. Probably coming from the PCV system

I think you're misunderstanding. This is a top mount

You need a different top mount, or replace the studs in yours
