I've been getting a code that said that my 2011 mini Cooper had a problem with a thermostat, so I started to replace the thermostat housing and I went to take the thermostat off of the crossover tube the entire crossover tube pulled out of the water pump side. I've looked all over the internet and I can't find anything that shows how to replace their fix that using a non-turbo r56. Does anybody have any idea how I can find that information? I looked at a Hanes manual and it was not very helpful.

 

Its the same set up as the N14 on the waterpipe to waterpump/thermostat. The Intake manifold is a little different on the design.
