THIRD pump? My gosh, thats inexcusable. There should have been a nationwide recall on them. Shame on you MINI.

Is your fan working correctly?

yup first one was warranty then this one went so yeah i'm going on three . plenty here are on two . the mini mechanic who first took care of the car couldn't believe the horrible design . he's a bmw mechanic first . he thought the lines could have been longer and rerouted to add capacity .
