i need some help, just got my first mini, and around 55 sounds like a fan or something kicks on and make a anoying sound, and will stop if i push the clutch in, can anybody tell me what the sound is??

 

Go to the thread here:

and see if the symptoms are the same. If so, it's a Harmonic Balancer. $375 for the part at my dealership. Badly overpriced, to say the least. Don't know about the labor costs, as I plan on doing the work myself...
