Gen 2 Technical Service Bulletins (TSB) Database

MINI Gen 2 Technical Service Bulletins-Google Doc

I've finished the database of all the TSBs I've discovered for the Gen 2 cars. The Google Doc has the SIM number, SIM Subject, and MediaFire link for the PDF download.

MediaFire Folder with all TSB PDFs: Contains all the TSB PDFs discovered so far. You should be able to download the whole folder if desired. EDIT: I didn't realize you had to be a "pro" member of MediaFire to download the entire folder. Not the best solution, but for now I've made a zip file with all the current TSBs here: MINI TSB Archive.zip (11 Mb) EDIT 3/25/11: Updated zip file to contain an Excel spreadsheet and PDF of the database for offline usage. Excel file and PDF are also in the MediaFire folder.

Please comment on any errors you've found or additional SIM numbers that are not in the list so they can be added.

Excellent! Thank you!

Just a quick note that if anyone subscribes to minitechinfo.com has access to the TSB database. That's where I pulled some of the window and other TSBs from.

Awesome bit of information! Thanks


Now if someone has a list of the weird R56-specific DME and OBD codes....I'd be happy as a clam

so is this for things that would be covered under warrenty or would they be considered defective and not require a warrenty. ie im at 75k and no warrenty but the sunshade keeps opening, would that be covered by them?

WHOA. this is like the BMW/MINI playbook. omfg.

thanks!

like Swopey said, if you're past warranty, can these TSBs still be addressed free of charge!?

This probably isn't all of them, only the ones I've discovered. If anyone has a SIM number from an invoice, etc. not on the list let me know.

Still looking for a sticky.

2nd that and again would these be similar to a recall or a defect? meaning would they be covered on mini's out of warrenty? ie ME!
