We are new to the forum, and to new mini ownership. I had owned an "original" mini many years ago in England

This beautiful white cooper s (that white is stunning...almost ivory?) is a replacement for a Honda S2000.

Only 400 miles on the clock so far....have noticed it idles quite unevenly/roughly. is this a common feature of this engine? A running in issue? Or is it something of concern?

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on the new MINI. I have heard no comments about "running rough" from anyone who wasn't having some sort of problem, so I don't think it is a normal complaint. I would have it checked out by the service department. I have never had any thing like that happen with my '09.

 

Congrats on your Pepper White! Post some pics.

I agree, it sounds like you need to make a trip to the dealer and have that problem checked out. Good luck!

 

Maybe exaggerated somewhat....it just seems a little less than SMOOTH at idle.....but maybe I have been away from smallish inline 4s for too long.

Loving the damn thing.....cuteness and all....except the infuriatingly useless "top-down" gauge. An extreme example of "trying too hard". Would be a perfect place for some temp and boost gauges!

 

looks great...congrats

 

Hope the roughness isnt a problem!

 

Congrats and welcome!
