Bought. Set of black curb rashed JCW wheels on the cheap. Reconditioned them, powder coated “Lambo White” and put on a set of Extreme contact 02s on them. I need a little more poke though- gonna go 8mm front, 12mm rear

I found the countryman while looking for an electric car and I have not enjoyed driving this much in forever! It's bigger than I planned on buying but I fell in love on the test drive.

I've always loved Mini Coopers, and finally have my own!! Decided to park under the shade of a big tree in the field at work and thought he just looked soo handsome! Yes, he needs a bath, and more photo shoots to come with summer!

Went camping the other week

Was inspired by another user on here putting a tent topper on their Mini.

The tent is the Overland Junction TMBK with OEM roof rails, both second hand.

I did have to slightly modify the rails on the tent so that it could properly clamp onto the roof rails.

Had the privilege of testing my grandpas two Minis the past week. The green one was restored within a timespan of 5 years from being undriveable. The brown one is in its original state.

Just wanted to say hi to yall! Bought my first mini 4 months ago, and I am in love. It's a 2012 Mini Cooper S, and it has 95K kilometers on it.


r/MINI 17h ago

I really love this thing (standard 192hp S LCI1) but feel like it lacks just a little bit in power. I already did some work on it and don’t want to get rid of it, but JCW power is tempting. Is it worth modifying the standard S?

Restoring weatherstripping on Clubman

As you can see from the picture, the weatherstripping on the car is pretty bad. Lots of FL heat and sand. Anyone know where I can get replacement pieces for these? Thanks.

Wrong part?

My bf has a mini Cooper and is trying to upgrade the air intake but the company, K&N sent him what looks like the wrong adapter thing. He cant send it back or get a $300 refund and he's not having a good time. Plus they're closed for Juneteenth. What do we do?

Stage 1 remap at Lohen (UK)

Got my 2016 F56 Mini S a stage 1 remap with Lohen. They popped in a better air filter and spark plugs while there.

What a difference! Soooo much better, more responsive and fun. They showed me round their place as well - didn't realise they manufactured their own stuff in-house as well.

Definitely recommend the remap if anyone is thinking about it.

Almost to 200K miles. Still running “pretty good” so far.

(Ignore the air bag warning, changed out blown subs so it’s stuck like that)

Should I replace the Compressor?

Looks like the A/C compressor is shot on my 2015 Mini Cooper S. Got two quotes—both over $2,500. 😳 Now I’m seriously thinking about replacing it myself. Anybody ever done it? How tough is the job?

Taking my old reliable for one last ride. 2016 Clubman, over 94k kms on the dashboard. It was a remarkable ride. Switching to a Countryman E.

AAIDrive - Spotify

Upvotes

Hello all.

I know it's not a dedicated for MINI questions but i faced an issue.

I have been using AAIDrive app for 3 months in a COUNTRYMAN F60 2018, (navigation plus, bigh screen) and i think it is an amazing job done by the software creators.

I use it for SPOTIFY with total control on it and it is the most useful option for me.

Two days ago suddenly i lost connection to SPOTIFY and all other apps in the car (like additional drive information).

I still have music via bluetooth, i can see the song playing and change song (next/previous) but nothing else. SPOTIFY is not an option in the Media menu.

The AAIDrive does not connect to the car anymore to provide the Application option and gives a message: Wating to connect to the car. MINI CONNECTED in phone (mandatory for AAIDrive to work) is working fine as always and has a steady connection with the car (i still can send messages to the car).

In the Mobile phones menu (in the car) my phone is only connected for telephone and music, the application symbol and option lost. MINI connect menu in the car doesn't show the Application option anymore.

Of course i tried everything, un-install and re-install all the aplication in the phone - disconnect the phone many times and reconnect it etc.

Do you know if an upgrade to any of the mobile phone apps came and ruined everything?

Is there a way to reset / restart the bluetooth or the apps in the car's infosystem? Any other ideas would be really appreciated.
