Mini roadside app
Anybody else having trouble with the roadside IPhone app? I tried to sign up and it said my vin was not recognized. It also had no countryman colors. Are we second class with MINI?

The in-app Help did say it could take a few days after you purchase your car for the VIN to be recognized.

Maybe you're CM is too new?

Doesn't explain the color issue, though...

I registered an '11 MCS on the app after 1 week of purchase and had no issues with the VIN registry or the specs it returned. Just another data point for you.

Thanks for the information. We picked it up Thursday and I was trying the app on Friday. I may just be impatient after all that waiting for delivery.

No, according to the owners lounge its coming from Oxford just like every other Mini.

But I really think its just because the car is still so new and in its first production year here.
