I don't post much here since I've owned my Mini, because it's been running like a champ, but this past weekend the car wouldn't start. It was the battery (less than 2 yrs) that went south. After jumping the car, the battery was so bad that I couldn't make the 8 mile drive to the dealer and had to have it towed the last 4. I was worried that the alternator was bad too.

Fast forward to today, got a call from service manager that the car was just about ready. Wow...that was fast!! After running diagnostics, it was only the battery after all. And since it was close to service time, they went ahead and did full service. All this covered under warranty!

I gotta say, Mini of Austin is great! I think I see a CMS All in my wife's future!!
