Meep hit its 125,000 mile marker,

R1 drilled and slotted brakes and carbon/ceramic brakes installed

She needs a new driver wheel bearing soon as well as a P302 code that pops up sometimes in all ranges, Plugs check out, wires too, I have another coil from a fellow Miniac so Ill put that on an see if that helps. If it isnt the problem Ill be looking at the injectors or the computer.:stupid:

 

ps, ran fast and hard with this GT500, lol we seem to meet a lot on GW parkway:motor:

Consider that plug wires should be replaced every 75k.

 

Why you changing the timing gear and chain?

So one injector (#2) works 95% of the time and that is where my misfire code is coming from. After a few cleaner tanks it rarely happens now. But when I get back from vacation I'll be getting a new set and possibly a a tune. When I purchased the car it had 120k on the clock and Ive since put another 10k on it, in 5 months. A timing service is prudent on high mileage minis as well as hard driven ones. I am positive mine had never been serviced and me being who I am along with my abilities, she gets the full treatment! :top:
