    Have you replaced or know if the Thermostat, timing chain, or water pump had be replaced by the previous owner? Thanks, nice looking MINI

    Hiya - I have replaced the thermostat and timing chain but not the water pump. I think I saw that the water pump is covered by the manufacturer up to 120K miles; I can double-check. 

    Hello - I can go back and check my records, but in the meantime I have deduced that the water pump was replaced because there was a recall for it, and a check of the VIN shows no open recalls. I have added the VIN to my summary above.

  4. Worked with Frank Rivera at PMoA last week and concur with Ali's assessment.

     

    A minor vent: they topped off my engine oil but forgot to replace the oil cap (it was sitting on the engine) and didn't push the dipstick in all the way. Showed this loveliness to Mark Park (service manager lead) before driving away. Not Frank's fault.

    In a nutshell:

    1. No route sheets.

    2. No dry run.

    3. Due to #2, you 'may' end up on a dirt/gravel road and/or get turned around momentarily.

     

    That being said, #3 won't happen on this run. For one thing, I'm hoping to do a dry run of at least part of the route on Saturday (read: I want to try the donuts). And, there are several 'trusted' roads in the vicinity.

     

    Thanks to both of you!
