Mystery Part
I found this on the floor under the passenger side.
I don't remember taking it off of anything, but I guess I could have bumped it or knocked it loose accidentally.
Here's what I've done. Put the car on jack stands. Removed Alta CAI and computer. Loosened fuse box. Changed GearBox Mount. Put car into maintenance mode. Removed radiator. Removed fan shroud.
Just now I climbed under and changed the lower passenger side motor mount,.. I found this in the ground. Looks like a plastic cap of some sort.
Inside it says
MINI
6 757 038.3
GB
>PP<
Any idea where it goes?
Thanks

In this picture you can see that plastic plug in the end of the sub frame.

Thanks Way, it makes me feel more comfortable understanding it's purpose, I know it's no biggie that I'm missing one.

Could not find that part number, It might be used just for factory assembly.

Thank you, order is in. I'm not taking my car apart to check, I was wondering if it is possible for those pieces to get stuck inside the crash tube when it is removed. I'll know next time but at least I'll have them in case they are not there.
found them for you
