first mini

Hello! First Mini, 2012 R58 JCW coupe with 63k miles. Had it for 2 days. Loving it so far. I have ordered NGK ILZKBR7B-8DG plugs, new HT valve cover from ECS, brakes, tires, oil change kit, wipers, 2 quarts of MTL, green air filter, ready to get its service up to date. Please chime in if I missed anything on the service items you guys routinely change/replace. Stephen, Conway AR.

Welcome to the forum and MINI ownership. The MINI looks great. The garage is incredible. I need to go home and clean. I like the blue tape idea, although I think my wife would ignore the tape and park over the line like the white SUV.

Hi a143gsxr,
Really don't know, but it may just take a few days for site to catch up to you. There have been several changes to the site, so that may have something to do with it.
Hopefully one of the techs will get back with you on this!
