MINI Strict service

Ok as i dont have anything wrong with my MINI, but i do think it is a bullet proof car, i am just wondering how strict BMW is against the problems with the Coopers, clubmans, ect. I do know that some things are peoples fault, like burnt clutches, or other things. But i was wondering how strict they are if your transmisson or something goes out in your car.

If you are at a stock configuration you will likely have no problems getting warranty work done. Once you start adding mods you will have more and more of a fight.

what he said. dealers are getting much more militant about mods and how they may affect warranty issues.
