Hello all,

Name is Jonathan and I purchased 2 weeks ago a 2011 Mini Cooper S Turbo. Cloth interior, 6 spd, dual sunroofs and 81K miles. Seems to be in good shape. I already added an intake and front mount, also removed the front license plate. Next week is the downpipe.

After I installed the intake I got the P053A code and am trying to track that down. I got a new hose with the PCV heater on it and its still giving me the code. Read that it could be the connectors to far in or out. Adjusted them both ways and still P053A. Check the fuses in the engine and they are fine. Next is to check the relays.

Here are some pictures when I got it and 2 weeks later.

 

Sorry....no help on the code.....but WELCOME!
