Hey Everyone, I've been lurking around here for a little while until I was able to put up some pics in my garage. Picked up an MC40 last month and have been working to revive her from the brink (slight exaggeration). 2004 Mini Cooper "S" MC40 Edition 150k Miles Question for the group, why is it returning a "Page not found" when I click on someones name to view their profile??
Something is amiss with M/A. Could be the supercharger belt is slipping, plug wires or something else.
I got scared by all the classic mini's. There wasn't another MINI in sight so I high tailed it out of there.
"Question for the group, why is it returning a "Page not found" when I click on someones name to view their profile??" Correct - I'm working through it. There is something going on in the back end.. trying to figure it out. That said, this issue is fixed now.. hoping we have seen the last of this issue.
Went out to MME this past weekend, found the only other car that makes my mini look full-size. Big surprise it was another mini.
New Vinyl Well looks like we weren't able to recover the last couple days of posts so here I am reposting my picture of my new MC40 Graphics. I used the 3M eraser wheel and it was awesome. But for the price it had better be awesome. You can see the old decals sitting on my bumper.
New Brake Pads and Rotors I wonder if these are the original brakes from the factory, because thats what they look like. Surprisingly, my hubs are still good, no play in them so I threw a coat of black spray paint on them. Looks like I need to paint my calipers too, still deciding between red or black for the calipers.
Those brakes are hella old. The rust has creeped around from the backing plate & has gone under the pad material releasing it. If you haven't yet, pull the front brakes apart & do a thorough inspection.
