Is this the lower radiator hose connecting to the Thermostat Housing? This is right behind the front splitter. (looks confusing because I used a mirror to take the picture.) car is a hatch R56 w JCW front bumper.

 

Yes, Its the lower hose and it has a leak at the clamp or the hose is split. 17122754223

There is little clamps that hold it into the lower core support so it will not hang down.

thank you!!!

 

You are welcome.

 

and by the way, what is this?

 

Corrosion on the turbo or coolant residue , looks like the stop plug /gasket for the turbo is leaking coolant just barley . Its so the turbo can be used with other car engines There is not part number for that part from MINI , but on the front side is the coolant lines. Wipe it off and see if it comes back or you can see dips. Car turbo looks pretty new, are under warranty ?

The washer from the front might work.

Also you can have the dealership or yourself replace the height shield with updated version.

Thank you so much, another part goes in the cart!

 

One more photos!

I noticed few areas where there might have been something and may be missing... bought the car used few months ago

If you would be so kind to tell me what was in the 3 circled areas if anything...

 

#1 comes with clips. Looks like they lost it.

There is no part number for that clip, this is the closest I could find. 51642755036

#2 hold the wire harness for later models who had the harness. I don't see any wire harness , unless they slid it under the intake and around the corner.

Before they added the additional harness, but has the clip.







#3 for the factory alarm sensor. Two piece in the bottom left corner of our pics


R56 9/2009+ , which then have to be installed and then flashed by MINI dealership.

UPDATE: (turbo - coolant residue) So far after one month that I cleaned these leaks residues off, it's still clean, I will keep an eye on it.

Thanks!

 

UPDATE, BOTTOM COOLANT HOSE: It leaks a bit, almost nothing, but I'm replacing it next week, just got the part from ECS (cheapest around)
My mechanic tells me that the clams holding the hose up are fine and all its fastened properly, but still IT HANGS 1/4 lower than the bumper. Don't they make a shield for this hose, maybe something I can bolt on so when I scrape the bumper I don't scrape the hose?

Thanks!

 

Thanks for the order.

With a new clamp , it hangs a hair , but not too much. Check the clip in part also on the clamp.

Some people get the belly pan for extra hold up insurance.

 

Thank you so much!

 

Yes the GP belly pan does a good job. It's yet jUst one more reason to get one.

 

 

I use zip ties to keep it up. The radiator hose that is.

 

You are welcome.
