My Ride: Mini Cooper
3 years owning the car and now I have to fix it.
Just got the BMW back from Sing Fai Motor sports and wow itis a much better ride now, like new.
I fix the left and right TENSION STRUT WITH RUBBER MOUNTING (these were cracked inside the rubber)
I thing I hate about BMW is they design this part all in 1 peice and not 2 like the E46, then it would be much cheeper to fix and dont have to throw away the hold bar :thumbsdown:
2 STABILIZER RUBBER MOUNTING (these were cracked inside the rubber)
change the brake lines to steel with new brake oil change.
reset all the computers.
well done to Sing Fai he did a good job
now I love my car even more.
he said that itis very common in HK for this to brake. :thumbsdown:

Wow, very good. Nice to see that there are relatively normal repairs one can do, without having to go to the dealer.
Although, normal... three years sounds like a short time to have to exchange rubbers! Doesn't sound good, especially considering that some of these problems are typical.
