    Can someone help me out with the R's?
    I'm ashamed to admit I only know the 2007+ is the R56
    What about the 2007+ base Mini, Clubman /S and Countryman /S?

    RealOEM.com and a parts guy are coming through, here is what I have found out so far.
    Some Mini S use the TF-60SN and others use the TF61SN from 2005 to 2012
    The clubman / coupe / Mini could also have the TF70SC from 2011-2012
    The Countryman from 2011-2012 has the TF61-SN and in 2012 the TF61SN or the TF70SC

    So! Time to look up how the TF61 and TF70 are different and what impact that has on the DIY.

    Welcome to M/A!

    The article to which you are referring was written 4 years ago. However, that said, a BIG THANKS for your update!:Thumbsup:

    On the downside, though, does this remedy solve the problems with the R53 automatics?
    I have 2 of them as well as an R50.
