Hi, just got my mini 2 mo.ago. This the most fun car ever! chili power! I am having a small problem, I replaced The original battery a couple of days ago and now it won't start I have tried ,checked , rechecked everything. fuses, ecu reboot, fuel rail, plugs, cranks over fine, no spark, plugs not wet, etc. Worse part is I've only made 2 pmts . and nearest dealer is 170+ miles away. any body have any suggestions? I could really use a curvy road mini fix. Thanks.

 

What year is your car? Can you give us more information about it?

 

fredred,

Gee whiz! How about some photos? Everyone likes photos... especially of a mini!

 

It's 2003 mini base model, chili red, black leather int., limoed back 3 windows, with a curved stripe across windshield, k&n air filter, up graded tunes 100db+, 5 spoke stock wheels, 71,000 miles. It looks sad just parked in the drive way . Everthing else works great! There is no more $$$, until next month. I am still holding out for a low buck fix, the battery was $110. I am positive someone out there has an idea or thought as to the fix.
please o' GOD of tiny cars help us now ! Thanks

 

Good luck with that problem. Hopefully someone will be able to offer you some advice soon.
