2011 Jcw Engine Bay -no Label?

here is my 2011 MINI JCW engine bay, but there is no any JCW labels in or i cant find one. Does it true, i mean i read a threat says the distribution center could reserve the report if the car was damaged on the road of transition and did not over 10% (20%?) of total value. i may too over but...erm... Thank you.

My JCW did not come with any type of label either.

The only way to get a plate was the JCW tuning kit for the MINI Cooper S.

Hope that helps.

Only a minor addition to your question - SC law requires no reporting out of damage less than 10% of the vehicle value, which is where every single Mini ships through. If it happened at the dealer in your state, there should be a repair note listed under the VIN.

No sticker or label on the engine of a Factory JCW.

You can tell by the Vin # if you have a true factory JCW. The vin should have MF93 in it (Mine does) also I think the fifth # from the right or could be left is a 9.

The only other way is to step on the gas.

The Factory JCW engine & Transmission is put together in Germany using a different block and different beefed up internal components as well as different gears then the S or justa.

I guess the Germans don't like stickers etc.

There's a sensor/plug right under the passenger side of your strut brace that says JCW on it.
