JCW Pro exhaust flap not working
Hello all.
I just installed the JCW Pro exhaust onto my JCW through a separate workshop and not MINI.
However, the bluetooth remote is not working and the flap remains closed.
Does this exhaust system need to be synced with the car or it's just the remote/receiver module that is malfunctioning? Just trying to narrow down the culprit here.
Thanks

Just guessing here.
I have a 3 week old MCS with the tuner kit installed when the car finally arrived and before I picked him up. In addition to the exhaust system hardware, the tuner kit includes ecu tuning that achieves an additional 30 horsepower. Perhaps the ecu tuning also includes setting the blue tooth remote control?

You need to get the Bluetooth paired. PDF linked. Make sure everything was hooked up right.

Good lord. Does this mean I'm screwed?
An independent workshop brought the exhaust in for me because the MINI dealer in my country refused to do so due to regulations.
And I don't think this workshop can access the After Sales Assistance Portal to release it?

If the regulations relate to the noise of the exhaust, perhaps your dealer can still do the ecu tune only if you do have the tuning kit?
The pairing of the bluetooth looks like it can be done by your independent or yourself as the after sales portal is only needed for the ECU tune of the JCW tuning kit from what I understand.

It's a factory JCW.
Ok then maybe it's the remote or the receiver module that is faulty.

Is it a Cooper S you have and it's the JCW tuning kit you have?

Dunno if anyone has mentioned this but I talked to a tech who told me that if you have any device near your bluetooth trigger for the flap that has bluetooth on it that the flap won't engage.
Had a friend with this problem. He had his iphone and his apple watch near the trigger button. When he moved his phone to a different spot in the car and switched wrists on his watch, the trigger worked.
It's happened to me as well with photoshoot cars from the Mini dealership near me.
