2008 R52 S convertible super charger

How do I find out what kind of supercharger I have in case I need to replace it? Any idea where I would get one and the cost? I am trying to be prepared. Anyone have to replace one and if so what was your experience? I recently had some problems with my harmonic balancer which is now fixed but while reading about common repairs to Mini with over 90K miles it was mentioned that supercharger could go out. I hope to keep my car for many more miles but also realize there may be repairs. Thank you!

only 1 supercharger for mini's OEM

eaton m45.

you can have them rebuilt if the PTO gears go.

waymotorworks.com has them, also a few others, cant remeber without going to their sites.

but you could also check detriottuned.com
outmotoring.com
helix.com

and talk with any of them and ask where the best place to get a supercharger rebuilt

We have new ones here, if you perfer that: All new ones have the teflon coating. Like your older one. But some years did not have the teflon coating on older MINIs

This is the NON JCW Kit version, so just for the Cooper S. 11657540124KT

Here is the SC oil 12345982 , its in the link. Link to the 2008 R52 MINI Cooper Convertible S. There is a seal / gasket kit linked also.
