Help me please!!!!!!!!!
ok first off I own a 09 mini clubman S it was 48000 mile and i bought with 45000. Now a week ago my engine light came on i had the codes check and it was lean {pending} , and then it came off for about 5 miles. Then the engine light came on in the dash, at this point i had NO engine power at full throttle and in second gear. i got it home luckily i was 2 miles from my house. Ween i got it home i look under the hood and noticed that there was oil on top of my turbo. Then i look online for something like that, found out that the oil feed lines are faulty and that mini "knows" of the problem. Which costs 1200$ to get it fix with the same line, but i founded a place that makes a new line that is much better an they make this part to fix this part. They are called Detroit Turned. i did get this part on and No oil leak, made it down about half a mile down the road an the Check engine light came back on. After that i limped it to the auto parts store so they could scan it. That is ween i hit the floor, it had 6 errors. The code are p2177 , p3091 , p0300 , p0304 , p0302 , p2188......... So at this point iam clueless of what to do i need HELP. I just hope that i don't have to take it to the dealer cause it has no warranty left, so any help would be nice thank you i just want my fun to drive car back

High pressure fuel pump
Around 50,000 miles my 09 Clubman S would sputter and die sometimes on cold starts or after sitting for 30 minutes. Using my AccessPort I recorded various misfire codes (P0300, P0304, P0302, P2781, P2779, P277D, P2880, P2783,P277B, P277FP2773, P2775). My local Mini shop suggested faulty high pressure fuel pump.
So I went to the dealership and they told me that the high pressure fuel pump has up to 120,000 mile warranty, not 50,000 like the rest of the car. They also don't use P-codes at the dealership... It was going to cost around $130 to diagnose the problem, but if the HPFP was found to be the problem it wouldn't cost me anything, otherwise the $130 can go toward the cost of the repair. Their diagnosis did not indicate the HPFP, but they replaced it for me anyway, and the car has been perfect ever since.
Anyway, you have some of the same codes, and yours appear to be fuel pressure related (look at http://new.minimania.com/Gen_II_MINI...wertrain_Codes). I suggest you have the dealership replace your high pressure fuel pump and let us know how it goes!

fixed it
i did get this fixed, the intake man/ valves where caked with carbon built up, sadly i did have to go to the dealer to get this fixed but i also had a died high psi fuel pump which was under warr. but i have been watch this very carefully winter is almost over here and no problems after this, but i have herd that seafoam works to stop this. A friend showed me what is does on his 1987 Nissan 300z car it cleaned all the carbon out, he told me it smokes white if there is carbon in the engine but i wont do this if you live in the city sometimes this can smoke out a neighborhood. we had the fire dept. called on us because of the smoke that is how bad his car was. Now i dont know if this works yet or not i have not tryed it on my car yet but i well because of the 700$ bill
