new mini owner needs help!

Hi everyone, I am a new mini cooper owner. i just picked up a 2016 mini cooper hardtop today. I realize that the car has some kind of vibration when it is in low rpm acceleration, is this normal? Please educate me! Thank you very much!

No, it's not normal - my 2015 doesn't do it anyway. I won't speculate what might be the problem, but I'd take it to the dealer to have it checked.

ok, thank you! by the way, does 2015 and 2016 share the same chassis code? do they share all the parts and aftermarket parts? Thanks!

I would recommend you contact your dealers Parts Manager and ask these questions. I'm not familiar enough with those items to say one way or another.

The LED lights may work. 63122338554. It isn't listed as an F56 part on RealOEM, but it does show up on ShopMINIUSA if you select the F56.

The alarm seems to be for the R56 models. 65120443179
