So if I need to get my mini serviced...

If I need to get my mini serviced, do I have to take it up to Niello in Sacramento? Or is there a place closer that's authorized to work on Mini's?

Thanks!
Jen

Jen,
The only times I have been to Niello was to order, then pick up Sir Nigel. All of my service work I had done at Long Beach MINI.

Oh,
As far as closer dealers...I live in Hanford, and Bob Smith in Calabasas is the closest for me. If you're in Fresno/Madera, probably a Bay area dealership.

For those interested in doing their own maintenance or wanting help, maybe we should organize club maintenance parties (garage parties?). Since I have most any tool needed to do almost any job, from pulling an entire engine and drivetrain to changing oil, I would be happy to host such an event. Sunday, after the Mt. Diablo run, I will be replacing my sticking S/C bypass valve. Mods are no problem, either, since I have installed all of mine with no problem and will continue to mod to the end. :smile: Check my sig for the major mods. Let me know if there is any interest in this. Thanks.

Steve

Dredging up old threads again? You missed out on all the mod days at my house before I went into the MINI business. The El Cid restaurant must miss us too.
