Hello from S Florida


Hello from S Florida. My name is Dimitris and own a Hot Chocolate 2012 Mini Cooper S Convertible with a John Cooper Works package. Love the way it drives, and sounds, and still customizing it a bit. Only one concern with a P0456 code, it is displayed as "permanent" and may be the issue with the fuel purge valve, since it is also hard to fill the car with gas without the pump "clicking" every few seconds. So I have to still find the proper part and a lift to change it. But I LOVE IT! Check out the picture attached. Thanks everyone!

Maybe the leak detection pump?
