It's not just Mini it runs the PSA Diesel which is fitted to Ford, Volvo, Peugeot, Chitroen, people follow the planned maintenance and loose engines at 60k, where I over maintain ours and it's nearly on 150k and still on the original turbo. FYI BMW want about £650-700 to do the cambelt and the...

Cambelt duration on my wife's R56 Mini is 10 years 140k miles! I changed it at 90k 6 years old. Waterpump was leaking and causing damage to the belt so I would never go by manufacturer, it doesn't take much to remove the cover and look at the condition of things [emoji41] Sent from my SM-G930F...

Have you ordered a locking kit and a new waterpump? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Change mine every 40k or 4 years which ever comes first. I've always fitted a Gates kit and a waterpump with a metal impeller. [emoji106] Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

I can't believe I've been active and lurking on this Forum since 2001! I'm now on my 3rd Mk1 Leon in 18 years, first one a 20vt Sport purchased new in October 2000, written off in 2007 and replaced with a 130pd, I had that for 11 non eventful years! In 2018 I replaced it with a 1 owner FR 150...

So my Leon 150 pd has a whistle on boost from around 2500rpm, I've had the car checked, turbo is fine, doesn't appear to have any boost or vacuum leaks, it's got no loss of power, no errors and doesn't go into limp mode. When I disconnect the vaccum pipe or the map sensor the noise goes, does...

Drove my 130pd from 80k to 215k over 10 years and only changed service items, this FR has had the bonnet open more in one week than the 130 in 10 years [emoji23][emoji23] Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

So I replaced the thermostat last Saturday and everything was going great, temp going up to 90 and most importantly warm air in the cabin, but on Wednesday the engine started running cold again and only warms up while it's stationary, am I looking at a faulty thermostat or do I need to look...
