Hi all, my name is Ken and I am new to NAM. I have owned 4 Minis to date and love everything about them.
I recently upgraded from a 2013 Mini Cooper S R56 1.6 L to a 2018 Mini Cooper Countryman S F60 2.0L fwd. I am having a bit of remorse because it is not the speed demon my R56 was but have many things I hope to do to whip it into shape.
I would appreciate any direction or guidance that can be offered to solve what appear to be fairly common issues with my F60... mainly stuttering acceleration at low speeds and the shifting which all happens below 3000 rpm which seems to give much less zip in Mid setting. It is currently all stock. But has a few small cosmetic interior issues I plan to address.
I am excited to join this group because, I have located very useful information in the past for my other cars that always seems hard to find.

My current project😉
