Miss firing 1 and 4 and over heating off and on
Has any one had this issue my 2011 mini countryman s all4 started to over heat today while driving to work 45 mins away when I turned the Ac on it took a minute before the cold came in to play then warning lite disappeared about 3 mins later the cold air stop coming out and the overheating light came back on.the car had power issues After work I went to take off and about 2 minutes later it's over heating i check the temp with my obd2 reader via Bluetooth and it was at 255 not sure how that could be that hot in 2 min either way it acted the same way all the way home any thoughts?

The temp gauges in the MINI ( All models ) is not a gauge as one would think a gauge is supposed to work.
The MINI gauge has only the means to read three temps.
1- Stone dead cold - first thing in the morning.
2- Normal operating temp - usually mid way up the gauge lines.
3- Overheating condition - Ooops, I just blew a head gasket....
It will not creep up the dial providing any forewarning. It will read normal temp to oh-**** very quickly. When this happens, pull over immediately and shut engine off. Call AAA. Do not keep driving.
Overheat in conjunction with multiple misfires typically indicate upper cylinder head repair.
