Rough Start R56

So I was replacing spark plugs because of misfires and found oil leak around the spark plug well.
Short story,
NEW PLUGS
NEW COILS
NEW VALVE COVER GASKET
Nothing is leaking and those problems are fixed. The engine is staring rough though kind of like its gonna cut out. It drives away perfect though. Its only showing problems of a rough start for the first say 20 seconds until I put it in drive and pull away. It doesn't even do it at a stop light or just putting it back in park. Only on start up.

Any help is appreciated,
THANKS LEWIS

Hello,

If you have a Gen 2 MINI

The next things to check would be the carbon cleaning:

The the HPFP if its an S or JCW ( turbo) . : https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...r-r56-jcw.html





Do you have a Cooper or Cooper S ? Gen 2 , Gen 1, What year.
