    Any body knows a good shop in the san antonio texas area, where I can take my mini? I have a problem with shifting. When the car is cold it would shift normally but when is hot, I have to use force to get it into shift.
    Any help?

    Thanks!

    Welcome, thanks for joining Motoring Alliance, the FUN and Friendly MINI Community.

    I've heard South Texas Automotive Specialists is a good shop.

    Welcome to M/A the FUN Mini site. :Thumbsup:

    Sounds like your problem could be a leaking clutch Slave cylinder. The part is cheap, well under $100 plus labor, but you want to make sure you have someone that knows what they are doing replace and bleed it correctly.

    Sorry I don't know of any shops in Texas because I am in Pa.
