Stock Problems/IssuesDiscussions related to warranty related issues and repairs, or other problems with the OEM parts and software for MINI Clubman (R55), Cooper and Cooper S(R56), and Cabrio (R57).
Sounds lame and maybe worth pushing a one time good-will type of agreement. They need ot make it right but at an appropriate cost since they "tried" to fix it before.
The SA said MINI used to do some good will repairs. They no longer do this under any circumstances.
They charged me $54 for "diagnosis" as well. I just paid and left. I'm done with the dealership.
I just need to clarify something... if I'm going to just replace the tensioner I need part number 11-31-7-607-551, but if I were to replace everything (chain, guides, tensioner etc) it would be part number 11-31-7-597-895. Is this correct?

That is the conclusion I came to from reading through the SIM.
I ended up changing the chain tensioer myself and used 11-31-7-607-551

You may want to look at this thread if you want to see the full list of parts that my local Mini shop replaced when I took it in for the 'death rattle' service just a couple weeks ago...
