I have just dropped my 04 MCS off at the dealers for an oil and filter change and to have the convenience features changed. I gave the SA a list I had downloaded from the web showing all of the things that can be changed - you know Daytime Running Lamps etc. My list shows that you can have the horn beep once when you lock (with the remote) and twice for unlock (or vice versa I can't remember).
However the dealer pulled out his sheet and it did not list that option. He didn't even show the "wipers to delay on vehicle stop" option.
Does anyone know (from experience) what the options are?

I believe that the beep on lock, double beep on unlock is only available if you have the MINI alarm installed. I may be mistaken on that.

 

yeah i think it is only with the alarm. i have it, and it beeps twice when unlocking and once when locking. it's not the horn, though, it's an actual beeping sound (if that makes any sense).

 

I'd LOVE to have the wiper feature...Is that for real??

 

Yes, my 04 MCS has that feature.

If the wipers are on the low speed setting and you come to a full stop, they switch to intermittent, when you take off they switch back to the low speed setting.

 

What year is your car? I have a July 03 build.

 

I fitted the alarm myself so asked the dealer to activate it for me so I should be good to go. Amazing that the SA knows less about our cars than we do. MINI should make every SA own one then we may get what we want.

 

I've GOT TO GET THAT! Although it doesn't really rain here, that's such as awesome feature. Well, at least to me!
