randmness Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 I recently picked up my Mini from PTuning after having a bunch of maintenance and upgrades completed. They drained/filled the transmission fluid, drained/filled the supercharger oil, installed 15% SC reduction pulley, swapped the crank pulley, water pump, thermostat, and some other maintenance work. Just wanted to say that they did a great job. I worked with Daniel who kept me well informed on the progress and any issues they that came up. I can see why they are highly recommended and I will definitely be sending my car there again for future work. 2006 Mini Cooper S
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 it's great to hear such feedback on them. They're really a great shop and a supportive vendor of the club. Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
Steam Hogger Posted October 9, 2015 Report Posted October 9, 2015 Where is PTuning? I have been wanting to get my supercharger serviced too. Looks like too much a pain in the tail feathers to tackle myself.

randmness Posted October 9, 2015 Author Report Posted October 9, 2015 Servicing the supercharger oil is pretty labor intensive. If you are having it done, you should probably have them do the water pump as well. 2006 Mini Cooper S
Steam Hogger Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 Thanks Edge. Randmness, My MCS is only about 10k behind yours. Have you had issues with the motor mounts yet?
Donross Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 Being how I'm in Glen Burnie...the drive time would be similar. Heck of a drop off and return trip. How was the turn around time on getting your car back? Pricing reasonable?
randmness Posted October 10, 2015 Author Report Posted October 10, 2015 I've only had my MCS for about 500 miles or so. It's possible that the previous owner replaced the mount already. Being how I'm in Glen Burnie...the drive time would be similar. Heck of a drop off and return trip.How was the turn around time on getting your car back? Pricing reasonable? Yea, it's not really that close (I live in Columbia, MD.) I didn't schedule an appointment so it took about a week and half from when it was dropped off. The pricing seemed more than reasonable. 2006 Mini Cooper S

Heck of a drop off and return trip.How was the turn around time on getting your car back? Pricing reasonable? PTUNING has had customers come from as far as NJ and TN for service. They're a very high quality shop and will treat you right. They're honest. They also offer a DCMM member discount as they are one of our special vendors. I would encourage you to give them a call before you make the drive though
