UK R60 Cooper S, N18 engine, late 2010 car. Mine threw a check engine light/limp home mode at 59,500 miles, 8 years old. Had a few rough starts recently where the engine nearly stalled.
Got P0087 error code once but once cleared, car was running fine. Got the part for £360 from Neobros, followed a guide on here (although the R60 is slightly different). Less than 30 mins work once you know what you're doing, the most difficult part was removing the flexi fuel line as the two plastic clips inside snapped straight away.
Car seems to be running fine now.

Anyone know if the HPFP has been redesigned and will actually work for more than 30k miles? I'm on my third HPFP since I bought the car and looking for a real fix, not just plugging in another poorly designed part. I've got a 2009 S with 158k miles so no dealer help here. Is there anyone making a quality part that doesn't fail on a regular basis.

Some people believe that they have ran there fuel lower or near empty on the tank more then often and sediment has gotten past the filter and thus very fine sediment has caused the fuel to not lube the HPFP internals. I guess its possible.

My car started bogging down and shaking at high speeds. It’s a 2009 MCS with 130,000 miles on it, when I got off the highway and came to a stop it died. It started up and managed to get it home but now won’t start at all. Could this be the fuel pump?

Elaborate on what you mean by “doesn’t have throttle” What happens when you give it some throttle. Does it want to die? Does it sputter and backfire? Is it throwing any codes?

Any History on the car? Might want to start your own thread so it receives more traffic.At this point all of your symptoms point to a bad Battery IMO. Iv found that Minis react strangely to a bad or dying battery. I know when mine was going my rear hatch would open at random and my windows would roll down on their own.

did you replace your battery? Like I said a bad battery will cause these cars to go haywire. The P60503 could be caused by a bad battery. Or is could be a speed sensor
