I always took my cabrio to these guys, they are reasonable and do excellent work

I don't know how to change my reply to the event. We have a family emergency; my aunt is in hospice and expected to pass tomorrow. I just can't go.
I hope you guys have a great run

I’ve got to ask Mark and see if he wants to. My MINI is all bundled for winter. If we come I’ll be in the Audi and Mark would bring a MINI. I know the rule non MINIs in the back
Mark said it sounds fun
where are you planning to start?

I enjoy a lot of the roads around the Dragon just as much and sometimes more than the actual Dragon. You want to avoid the Dragon on weekends, it's crowded and full of police looking to raise funds. Hellbender is a really fun swoopy road between the Dragon and Fontana Village
A really fun place to do photos is the top of the dam at Lake Fontana. There's rarely anyone up there and if the top is open you can park your car on the road that drives over the dam and get some awesome shots.
There are scenic overlooks all over the area.
Food options aren't great around there but if you have time to kill and don't care about good service Tapoco is nice because it's on a river and a really enjoyable location. The pizza is pretty good and the drinks are really good.

they have worked on my R52 several times. Great work and reasonable prices.

Hopefully an easy fix, Ali! I know the gang down at PTuning will get you sorted.
Thanks Jono
From what I googled this shouldn't be too bad. They're really busy so I'm patient.

Wahhhhhhh I took Tigger out for a fun day on Friday and as I was almost home everytime I stopped the oil light would go on. Then as soon as I was moving it would go out.
I got him home and later checked the oil, it was a little low. Mark topped it off but said it wasn't even a full quart low. Then he drove him again and as soon as he was warm the light came on.
I called PTuning, they said don't drive him and bring him in. Soooo I'm waiting for AAA now to get him. PTuning thinks it might be the oil pressure pump, I hope it's not anything serious

I bought the service plan

My F55 is 3 years old and had never had to go in for warranty work. I'm thinking I won't need an extended warranty because she's so reliable

I put it in my calendar but can't figure out the rsvp on the phone

I can see the picture now. I see the little box but no idea what it is

There's no image, just a gray circle with a white line

Hi! Does anyone know of a good secondary market for a FOB replacement? The Mini dealer in Alexandria said it would be roughly $500...which is steep. Thanks!
My experience has been to just pay them. Even if you find a cheaper fob, you have to have them code it so you won't save much if anything.

PTuning totally hooked me up with Trickle charging for Dummies. They set up a trickle charger in the boot with an adapter. It's basically plug and play. I plug the trickle charger to the house and run the wire to the boot. The big thing to figure out now is if I can lock up the car or not. I may just bungie the boot closed. It's unlikely anyone will try to steal him since he's a stick shift and there's nothing of value left in the car.

Thank you for the info!! Can you tell me an estimated cost?
It was 2 years ago so I don't really remember but I thought it was around $500ish. Tigger is an '06 and I'm not mechanical like I used to be. I just pay for the repairs and he has something every year. The repair costs start to blend

Thank you for this info!! You made me less stressed about it. If you know of anyone that you can refer to help me fix my A/C Compresser
When the AC compressor went on my 06 I took him to PTuning in Manassas. They give club member discounts

Even if you haven't ever had the lights? Mine doesnt have the entertainment package but my research into retrofitting hasnt given me much info on it.
I think The gen 3 lights come from the mirrors not the doors so they may not be as easy as the first and second gen.
