So I purchased my 2007 Mini Cooper S on March 21st. The valve cover gasket blew second day. This past tuesday Vanos Selenoid failed and was informed that the flywheel was defective.

Not to mention this is a CPO car with only 40k miles.

Sorry guys just had to vent.

 

I wouldn't be happy either. Covered by warranty hopefully. May be a fluke, but I'd be worried.

BTW, we did have to put a motor in our sons 07 MCS at 88K miles. And that's with oil changes every 5-7K miles.
