recently picked up an 05 MCS with 32k on it, some lights just came on (ASC/TPMS) and the ASC toggle doesnt turn it on/off anymore, was going to take it to Mini of Westchester as thats 15 minutes from me but theyre booked for awhile and I was wondering what shops you guys recommend around the lower westchester area or anywhere near the area to get my car scanned. ive heard it can be a bad wheel sensor or steering angle sensor but i want to make sure before i order any part. thanks in advance

 

If your TPMS is on then check your tire pressue in all 4 tires and try to reset. Follow the procudure in the manul. After you reset you have to drive it for a bit for the light to go out.

 

Tire pressure is fine

 

Tire pressure fine, but have you reset the TPM. Using the button next to your handbrake. Sorry to start with the basics if you have already

 

Tried it just how it said in the manual and it didn't work, ASC light is stuck on also and the toggle won't turn it on/off anymore either

 

I trust the guys at Tyrol Sport. I've been there a couple of times and so has my good friend/fellow MINI owner. Good experiences and they made a return customer out of me. I don't know how convenient their location is to you since you don't say where in NY you are, but here's their contact info:

Actually heard plenty about Tyrol cause I had a mkV GTI before and they're pretty big with the vw crowd I just didn't know they worked on minis, I'll give them a call hopefully they can scan it and tell me what the issue is, thanks

 

Cool, but then again "you already knew".
