I have a Fitbit and an iPhone and a 2016 Mini and I haven't had any issues at all with my phone linking to my Mini and I always wear the Fitbit. I didn't know you even could link a Fitbit to your car ... but it's an interesting idea to get in those extra steps
Did you try taking the Fitbit off and then pairing your phone with your Mini to see if that worked? Hopefully you have this already solved.

Thanks to DCMM, all participants and even all Beltway drivers (who probably won't see this) for putting up with my hotshot driving :rock: Here are the results:
Sorry I missed cars in the front because of technical issues.
THAT. WAS. AWESOME. INDEED.
Sorry, I had to cancel, Dad in hospital and had to be there. I HOPE to participate next year. The videos were so great to see. Thanks. Lee

While driving home from the Jimmy Buffett concert here in Oki I looked up to have this beauty in my rear view
wow, nice! Did he wave??
-
It will be great to finally meet you
I agree, it will!!
-
ok added all the photo's I've taken over the years. Here's the album.
Those are some great costumes! I'm going to try and show up but not decorating La Mini.

WoW!! Very nice!!
-
I'm in .. sounds like fun and will enjoy meeting everyone!
:motor: :motor: :motor:

wow, those are NICEE!!

He was right! I fiddled with it and it looked ok. Then just got back from driving around (errands are NOT boring anymore) and it worked fine the whole time.
thanks again! -
The display was probably on the current mpg, if you press the button on the end of the left stalk it will cycle through different displays on the second screen on your tac.
I just checked it. I ran it through the cycle and it looks ok now. Maybe I hit that button or something when I was driving ... I don't know, but glad there isn't anything wrong.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
And as I cycled through I saw I have had my top down 12 hours and 55 minutes hahaha
and she was 2 weeks old yesterday -
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.

Good thing you caught it, I wouldn't have ..

Thanks, appreciate it. Might have to call him sooner than expected. Yesterday on my way back from getting the leather conditioner stuff from Darryl - the indicator that shows MPG started stroking out
it was flashing every possible number 99, 36, 12, 30, 99, and where I would like to be getting 99 MPG, I doubt I am ... and I watch that indicator all the time because I love watching it slowly go up ...Anyone hear of that happening before? As usual, I'm hoping it just corrects itself and goes away...

Great! Darryl is a great vendor. He takes care of a lot of car clubs and understands our needs
I could tell. He had some VERRRY nice cars in there ... but none as nice as a MINI
-
Thank you for directing me to Darryl. I emailed him and he answered right away and recommended Adams. So, I got in my Mini and drove out there and picked up the stuff. He was very nice and helpful! And he did give me the discount! And enjoyed the drive with the top down!
Thanks a lot!!

I've been working with Frank Rivera and while he is sometimes slow to respond he has been very fair and honest to deal with. I also like Justine
As far as leather conditioner we have a vendor Odds and Ends Detailing in Sterling. I would ask Darryl what he recommends and you get a club discount buying from him just show him your membership badge. If you didn't get it yet let me know and I can confirm to Darryl that you're a member.
Right now I have a product from Prima that has done well with Tigger's leather seats but cabrios really get the leather beaten up. I have a crack in the drivers seat. This one will need a repair so I'll go to Doug who does auto upholstery and see what he can do. Last time he fixed it at a seam and it was flawless. This tear is right in the middle of the leather.
(regarding your leather)I'll get in touch with Darryl and ask him. Even if no discount, I would like to know the best way to care for it - before it becomes an issue ...
-
I will eventually be taking my mini to Mini of Alexandria. Any good service reps there you can recommend?
Also, been researching leather conditioners but hope someone here can give me the name of a really good leather conditioner based on experience.
Thanks, Lea

There is no automatic car wash that is safe for a cabrio. I've used a high pressure hose on Tigger but mommy knows where to tickle him with pressure and where to back it off.
Since I wrote this I have determined that Ragg top is the best and won't use another brand.
I usually treat in the Fall, I can host a cabrio to treating day this fall!
THAT would be fun!
Me too, I'm in !

Thank you for this post ... I bought some Rag Top products (cleaner and protectant) and the soft brush... I haven't used them yet - only had the car a week and 5 days
but I've been thinking about this subject.I took my Mini in yesterday to Passport Alexandria for a car wash
They use the wrong kind of car wash? :argh: I wrongly assumed they would do the right thing with the car :banghead:

Now I'm going to have to see what my Fitbit says I'm doing when I have the top down... :laugh:
(I hope the real question has been answered.)
