Hello everyone! 04 r53 in Binghamton NY here!

Hows it going all? heres my second and current Mini. $800 special. had had the head rebuilt and was never re assembled. Almost 200k on the clock. Always coming up with questions I try to research but would love a couple people that occasionally I can pick their brain.

Thank you. I have a question for you. When I really get on it at near 6k before shifting to 2nd I loose power to nav screen and power in general it seems. No squeels or any of that. I bought a new belt tensioner today. All stock pulleys and I do notice one is shiney (from slipping id imagine). Have you experienced that before? does a tensioner seem to be a good place to start?
Thanks
