I've had my '07 Cooper for a little over a month. I love it, and I wouldn't have any other car. However, there are just a few inconsistent "quirks" that pop up. The leaky sprayer nozzles randomly happen. For a two day period, the driver's side window wouldn't close all the way. It would lower like you were opening the door, but it never closed. Thankfully, it didn't rain. Then, it just started working. About a week before that, when I would depress the clutch, the car would die. This only lasted a day. But, every single time I pushed the clutch, the car would cut off. What would cause that? That seemed very strange to me. None of my problems are consistent enough to bring to a dealer's attention. Are these just break-in things, or could it be something else? They're so random and unrelated that it doesn't seem like a big deal.

 

Sounds like poltergeists to me. Have your dealer perform an exorcism.

Someone posted here that you can reset the window height for the problem you had. I don't recall what post it is in, but I think it is in the manual.

I'd tell the dealer about them. They may be indicative of a problem with the computer.
