New MCS Engine Cold Start Noise Problem?

Hey Folks, Anybody heard about the "Cold Start Horrible Noise" thread under NAM '07 Stock Problems: https://www.northamericanmotoring.com...d.php?t=121761

And MINI 2 site:

http://www.mini2.com/forum/2nd-gen-f...when-cold.html

Is this going to be a problem for all of us?

Who's affected here?

What is MINI doing to address it?

If anyone is concerned about this issue, or potential issue, on their Coupe or Clubman, MotoringFile has now reported on the issue, w/ video/sound clips of the issue:

I know that most folks in this subforum are ordering or picking up a new MCS from the lot don't want to hear about problems, but please be aware of this issue. You may or may not develop it, but it helps to know about it so you can identify it and report it when it does happen.
