Please help! codes and new !
After buying my first 03 mini cooper s a few codes came up
p1241
p1688
Which i believe to be either the bypass valve or the crank pulley
i cleared these codes and now a new code appears
p1239
im lead to believe that the crank pulley needs to be replaced.
being on a tight budget im looking for the most cost effective way to do this. should i replace both? where should i look first what should i do?
are these parts okay?

please help!!
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE

Before you go throwing new parts at it, have you seen this: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...39-1240-a.html
Also, the $70 crank pulley seems fine. If you're on a budget...

Those codes are commonly a crank pulley issue and then the burning rubber smell will come. So we always recommend going to the ATI Damper as it is the best option for long term life and reliability.
We never recommend the lightweight crank pulley as they are not dampened and hard on the engine bearings and oil pump gears.
If you are on a real budget get a good used one until you can upgrade to the ATI.
I install at least one ATI a week in the shop

If you are on a budget, it's worth a call to ATI to see if they have any factory 2nd blemished dampers. I bought one of those and frankly I couldn't find the blemish and they say they are cosmetic anyway. It was about 30% off if I remember correctly so it pays to call and ask.
But going cheap on Mini parts is never a value decision.

I don't think you ever said how many miles are on your new ride. I think biting the bullet on the ATI makes sense as you will never have to worry about it again and the OEM pull will fail at or near 100,000 miles if not before.

The rubber centered crank pulley on the MINI is prone to failure after many miles. The solution is to replace it with an updated design. Read more about it and with some awesome step by step DIY fix help here. If you come across any other issues be sure to check out our tech articles here for further assistance. We also provide a great amount of Mini parts, OEM and performance, in our parts catalog here for the future.

However after reading around i found this https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...39-1240-a.html and this is saying there is a difference in part numbers. Before i had the car one of the sensors was originally a 12140872648 however it was replaced with part number 12140872679. I thinking that the sensor was the issue also replaced it with a 12140872679. i think i should get 12140872678 and replace the one that should have been replaced with that

If it is the pulley you saved yourself a few dollars -- if its not -- no big deal because you will be taking care of preventative maintenance that WILL be necessary at some point.
You can theorize all you want -- or you can go with the diagnosis you were given a while back... not trying to be mean BUT always go with the parts you have on hand....especially given you have called out that $$$ are not free flowing.
