Just bought a 2011 mini. Needs a replacement ****, any idea what I need to buy to fix this? Found a diagram but it's not very helpful.

 

The little touch pedal button with arrow pointing to right ? Not available separately.....you have this radio below. You have to take the car back to the seller ( Dealer ? ) and they need to replace the entire radio. They are over $700.00 and should be a $500.00 core fee....

 

Yeah the right arrow ****. Interesting the dealer was quoted $350 but I was going to see if I could find something cheaper at a junkyard.

 

# 65123456874 RMFD RADIO BOOST CD (from 08/10) $690.62

The 300 dollar radio is not for a 2011. They looked up the wrong one.

 

I found a replacement radio here. Where did you see one for $700 with a $500 core? Thanks.

 

That's a good price.

When you order that one, they will probably tack on the core before they ship it to you.
It's the appx list price from most dealerships.

 

Did you check to see if there is any warranty coverage left on your Mini ?

 

I have like one month left, is that something that would be covered?

 

Should be....also would be good time to have it checked for recalls/updates/service schedule. They can do that from
their service counter using your key. 1675 Howard St,

 

According to the carfax it was last serviced at the local mini dealer mid September. I called them and unfortunately no warranty left, the 4 year 50,000 mile warranty ended last month. I'm going to see if I can find a radio from a junked mini.

 

We have them for $450.54, there is always a core with theses units if they come from Mini. You said you still have the remainder of the warranty so it should be covered. Definitely worth checking out.

 

If anyone else has this issue I bought a radio from a junkyard for $80 incl. shipping. The part with all of the ***** unscrews and screwed right onto the radio in my car, granted you have to basically take the dash all apart to get to it. Now I can sell the radio on ebay for probably more than I paid for it.
