just bought my 1st Mini! I have q's and concerns;(, hoping for advice
I recently bought my 1st mini cooper, its a 2006, has everything I could ask for, for being my first. But I do have a bit of concern and just wondering if this is how the mini runs, or if anyone else is having the same issue and if there is a resolution. I notice when I accelerate, my mini kind of stalls for a couple seconds. To be specific, its when I am at a complete stop and I try to make a right turn or a left turn, it hesitates/stalls for about 1-2 seconds. Its kind of nerve wrecking when I am turning out into traffic......has anyone had this experience with theirs? I love my mini...and love seeing minis on the road..this is the only issue i have with my mini.I am a proud new owner though thats for sure! please someone let me know any advice will help and I greatly appreciate it.

It's a vague description
if you spin the tires, the traction control will pull power. If the A/C is on, then it may bog a bit. 1 - 2 seconds is a LONG TIME.
Anyway, make sure that your clutch take up is smooth (to avoid the traction control) and see if there is a MINI club near you. They will be very helpful and someone with more experience will be able to drive your car and let you know.
