2007 Uncommanded Engine Shutdown
All,
Own a 2007 Mini Cooper S convertible. Great car but had a something happen twice that needs an explanation.
First time I was in a parking lot going very slow and in the drive (D), it is an automatic, getting ready to make a turn at the end of the parking lot to find a parking spot. Then engine shutdown. Put the gear in park (P) and the car started right up.
Second time I was pulling up to stop light and the engine shut off. I believe the transmission was in the +/- manual mode.
Any ideas? ECU? Fuel pump? Any history on these cars with Fuel pumps going at 76k?
Thanks,
JBC

You need to start with having the codes pulled from the car, that will give a general direction to point diagnostic.
Is there oil in the car? Cars that are severely low on oil will fight to stay running and stall at low rev.
