Bought a 2012 Mini Cooper S Coupe a month ago. Will be doing more traveling next year and wanted something fun to drive. When I saw the Coupe it took me back to my first car, a 10 year old min MkIII.

 

Congrats mike, please post some pix when you can! Any questions, please ask, and we have lots of application and upgrade guides on our website that may help you and your R58! Any mods planned?

Hello,

Nice "MINI Yours" interior. I have a R58 Coupe' also. Great MINI.

 

Very nice, what a beaut! Great that you had a MKIII, too.

@MiniMania .Your red one is pretty cool too. I've been to Nevada City many years ago when I was at Grass Valley on training. I have a GFB DV+ recommend by my brother who has AudiS3. I was going to fit it but I'm losing water, about 1/4 pint, 250ml a week. MiniGarage say it the water pump, so it's going back to the dealers mechanics as they gave me a 3 month warranty.
@ECSTuning thanks. Been looking at the Schwaben on your site and the review, but not sure it'll do what I want. Want to remove the stupid safety warning that needs the joystick to be pressed to clear.
I have upgraded the maps to 2017, Got an FSC for5 upgrades and the map for AU$105 and they give a free future map as well, while BMW want AU$150.
Also in Australia Mini connected is disabled. The dealer quotes silly things about the network unable to cope?
Other mods will wait. I need to read more on this forum.

Regards Mike

 

Welcome, " Want to remove the stupid safety warning that needs the joystick to be pressed to clear. " I have that and I dont think it can be cleared as it safety.

The schwaben tool is a very in depth MINI / BMW level diagnostic tool. Not so much a coding tool.

That's werid about the MINI connected, never heard that being an issue down there.
