Good news indeed! Being black-listed by Consumers Reports magazine for engine fuel system problems must have been a factor.

a humongous +1 to this!!!
I don't know if that is the problem I have been having. But, it sure sounds like a lot of people with 2010's are still having the problem with hpfp.
I will be pretty ticked off if the 2010's don't get the same courtesy.
Happier not, that is awesome for the rest of you guys with those models!

I just hope if people with 2010 models really start having the problem more prevalently they will extend the warranty for us as well. It would give me much more piece of mind and let me really enjoy my MINI to the full extent. Until then, I am going to always have in the back of my mind if I made a terrible decision to buy a MCS.

+1.
But you know, I had a MCC for a loaner the last week and it really wasn't as much fun to drive. I don't think I'd want the non-turbo engine.

I think BMW and Mini are working pretty hard on the problem. All the negative press and poor owner satisfaction can't be great for sales or their image. I wouldn't touch another Mini or 3 series with a direct injection engine until the issue is fixed.

This is GREAT news.
I had wanted an 07+ MCS for a while, but the seemingly frequent failure rate of the HPFP that reportedly costs $1000+ to replace was a one of the few items in the negatives column during my decision making process.
Despite my concerns, I ended up buying a used 2007 MCS a few days ago before I had heard this announcement. The factory warranty on my car expires in March. But this news makes me feel a lot better about my purchase.
