Which transmission?
Which transmission?
I'm trying to figure out which tranny my Mini has.... Midland or Getrag.
Tried calling 2 dealerships (one was the one it was originally sold new from) and they don't know.
How can I figure this out?
Thanks.

No confusion ... if it was built prior to July 2004 it will have a Midlands transmission.

Getrag.
The Midland is known for its weakness and many people have had to replace their Midland gearbox.
However, the Getrag isn't exactly bulletproof either.
I also know a few people who have had to replace their Getrag.
But in general, the Midland is the weaker gearbox.
Kind regards

MIB was less than 7 months old and it spit out the synchronizer on second gear. Dryer and Reinbold gave me a R50 CVT/Automatic for a loaner. What a difference! Glad I went manual.
Well the bottom line is when D&R was done MIB was like new. Never had the problem again. MIB was a 2006 R50 5 speed.
