I have a 2010 Mini base model. It has 76 thousand miles on it. Automatic transmission. I put new spark plugs on it about a month ago. The car died on me. I put new coils on it. The car ran fine for a week then it died on me again. I put a new fuel filter and fuel pump. The car still won't start.
I have a code reader and I'm not getting any codes or check engine lights.

I need some help.

 

What symptoms are you seeing when trying to start up? Why did you replace the items above and in that order?

My car won't start, I'd immediately think battery and then starter.

 

the car turns over just won't fire. The car had started running rough. A friend suggested I check the spark plus. I did, i replaced them and put about 4500 miles on the car. The car died and I just guess at it and replaced the coils. it ran fine for a week and died again. The fuel pump and filter, i was just assuming it was bad. But I was wrong.

 

You could still have a weak battery. Did you try jumping it?

Few more things for consideration here: http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2...ar-start-.html

If jumping the battery didn't get it going, I'd have it taken in to a local shop, personally. But you could look at replacing the items listed in that last section and probably a couple more folks here might point out.

 

The battery was weak from all the attempts to start the car. Today after I got the fuel pump in. I attempted to jump it off. It still hasn't started. I finally got a code on my reader. it said 173B. That's a Mass Airflow Sensor. I ordered one of those. I guess it's wait and see now.

Thanks for your help. I really do appreciate it.
