02 MC - Slew of issues... Which are easy to check off?
Hey All -
First off thanks to this forum as it has singlehandedly saved me thousands of dollars in tips, advice, and guidance.
With that being said the list of issues on this great ride has gotten to a point where i need to hit some of them on the head and either fix myself or take in for a service. Some of these I am hoping can end up being DIY vs paying the insane Mini dealer repairs.
1. Right-hand door creaks heavily when opening and closing. Video Here:

1. Right-hand door creaks heavily when opening and closing. Video Here:
2. Rear hatch door no longer aligns with the female receptacle on the car. I therefore have to push the door to the right when closing to get it to fit. Pictures:
This gap is only on the right side of the door.
3. Red oil light comes on. I had the oil changed less than 1,000 miles ago. Dipstick shows the correct amount of oil. I believe this started coming on right after the change as well. It was performed not at the official mini dealer but from a competent service shop.
4. TPMS Light is on I believe my last set of tires do not have a sensor - is there a way I can turn this off? Comments from when I had it inspected:
" TPMS control module interrogation revealed fault for rear speed sensors, though vehicle does not have sensors in tires and system reads off wheel speed. advise customer road test and inspection of vehicle wheel speed sensor wave forms recommended"
5. Airbag light - had this tested last fall and the outcome from the service shop was:control module interrogation revealed faults 80 "power supply (50)" 96 "seat belt lock, driver (60)" and 05 "side airbag FL (05)" advise customer further diagnostic testing and inspection recommended.
Well, that's all. Nothing fatal I think but seems like 1-2 of these would be a weekend project. Thanks in advance!
