2010 Clubman S with 12,000 miles going to the dealer on Monday for a tranny issue..just started downshifting to M1 or M2 when it's in D and should be upshifting to 3rd under hard acceleration. Happens in D or DS mode and even in M mode.

 

2010 Clubman S AT, 19,800 miles. Had hood scoop changed to carbon fiber, for a small upgrade fee, replaced rear third brake light LED unit for condensation issues. All else is great! I have the 6 year 100k service contract, just did fisrt set of front brakes (sensor and pads) at 19k. Standard dealer annual service, otherwise. I am pleased with the car, and would rate it highly thus far.

 

Picked up my 09 S in January with 24000 miles. I just crossed 33k miles. All is well so far except the dome light does not work. That is the way it was when I bought it

 

and still going strong!

 

2500 miles and counting!

 

86,000 on chassis now. A word of advice to all... DONT TEAR UP YOUR AXLES. They are ridiculously expensive to replace from MINI and no one makes aftermarket replacements. 550$ a piece.

 

How'd you tear up your axles, off roading or pushing such high hp numbers that they've become a weak link.

 

hp/tq have gotten to the point where the axles arent gonna hold up. Someone needs to start making some beefier ones. As these cars become more prevalent and HP/TQ numbers continue to rise the demand will be there.

The clutch/diff combo probably isnt helping the issue The OS giken unit is the only diff on the market that hits 100% lock

Damn Eagle Co. i didnt see it was you... Did you get your brakes yet?!?!?! Would you mind throwin some market feedback up for me

 

52K and going fine. Only complaint is the metallic sticker strips on the door threshold. Bent and coming up. Second set. Just a bad idea. Loving my Stage 1 upgrade.

 

Dealer replaced front 2 rotors at 6600 miles

My threshold strip on passenger side had to be replaced 2 weeks after I took delivery....otherwise I LOVE this sweet whip!!

2010 Clubbie, fairly loaded, much loved...

 

just reporting back... 900$ with labor for the axles and that was with one from a wrecked 09 S...

 

11 months and 8750 miles on my 2010 Clubman. No mechanical issues yet (sunroof, barn doors, windows, etc all working as they should). Do have a large crack in windshield that I need to replace. First service still showing 9000(!) more miles or 01/12. I still think it's weird that the original oil is in the car still...

Spent $876.69 since purchase on premium fuel, averaging 32.7 mpg.

 

2008 Clubman S: 35 1/2 K in 34 months of ownership. Been averaging 30 mpg city/hwy combined. (And this is with something of a lead foot) The only mechanical issue has been the release spring on the 3d door needed to be replaced.

 

Purchased my 2010 manual tran Clubbie on 28 Jun 2010. It has worked very well; better than my '03 MC did in its first 10 months. I'm changing syn oil every 6-7K miles and rotating tires at the same time. Other than a smash and grab broken driver's window, it hasn't needed any other attention. I'm still a car wash fanatic though.

Today it is at 15998 with first service in 3400. The mpg on the OBC averages 40 and I've checked it manually so know its close. A few weeks ago I did some rural roads for most of the day so my MPH was 50.1 and the MPG was 46.7 - no, I'm not kidding. At interstate speed I get 41-42 and around 'town' its 35-36 but because of where I live I usually drive at least 10 miles with few stops. I use 93 octane most of the time and cruise control most of the time.

I miss the driving fun of the early MC but for now this Clubbie is exactly what I need and who could argue with the mileage!

 

My 2008 has 15k in 35 months, so I lose.
It still looks new and doesn't have a scratch.

 

2008 Clubman, 57k front brakes, thermostat, water pump, all at once. Tire pressure sensor is a pain in the ***. Other than that damn fine car! Will be trading in on the Countryman, need more room! Any advice on a roof basket? Looking at OEM, Thule, or Yakima?

 

Hit 19,000 miles today. Taking it into the dealer next week to address the "death rattle". It also looks like I need new front rotors

And the left interior panel on the barn door keeps popping off when I open it. Probably due to the subwoofer mounted right next to it as well as a stiff suspension setup.

Other than those issues, it's been quite enjoyable.

 

What is the death rattle several owners have posted about? How noticeable is it?

 

I have this same issue...though both of mine were loose, the left side is more loose.

 

The guy in the service dept said that it may have been caused by tinting the rear windows because they had to remove the panels to do a clean job.

Course, have to put the blame on someone, lol. There might be some truth to that, but mine were popping off before my tint..happened after the dealer repainted the barn doors due to some delivery damage.

 

35000 bought new 08 clubman s, 1500 miles lost a ground and it took them 25 days to find it... just replaced tires with more runflats love the ride... great mileage automatic great, just had a mini shop(not dealer) decarbon the intake valves and injectors, added bg44k. Today looked close under the hood to put the catchcan in and WOW the underside of the hood was very oily due to the mist out of the pcv.... no worry.. breaks fine, happy but cautious... took a hour to clean the underside of the hood ....

 

6048 miles since June 15, 2010. Loving every minute of it. I've had to have the Amp replace already. That and the club door sticking are the only issues so far.

 

Just rolled over 8000 miles, and still making me smile

2010 HzB/Clubgirl, fairly loaded, much loved
