    If this does turn out to be a bad o2 sensor be advised that MINI extended the warranty on those to 100,000 miles. I had one go at 105,000 miles & found no happiness from MINI.

    Nathan, Many thanks. Mechanic cleared code, and it has not reappeared after 4 days. Location is NW Ohio. Just finished clearing my driveway. Up to now, we have had between 6 and 8 inches, with more to come.

    Crashton, Sorry about your luck with the sensor.

    I've changed the thread title to Error/Fault Code - P113C. This way others that may be seeking info on the same issue can easily find it.

    Codes for 1st generation MINIs can be found in the M/A Library - ECU Codes Chart - 1st Generation MINI - Library

    Is it most likly an O2 sensor code. The problem with the code readers you are using there is they do not have BMW/MINI specific code reading ability. Hence the more generic P113C. O2 codes range from P1132 - P1139 and each has a unique meaning.

    O2 codes often seem to pop up when the outside temp has made a big drop overnight. You don't have a location listed but being I see snow in your avatar I'm going to go out on a limb and say this code light shall pass in a few days and a few normal drive cycles.

    We've not gotten anything here in Columbus but rain so far today. I'm bummed. I wanted to see that 6" they called for the other day.

    We got about 8 inches on Thursday, and forecast to get 10/12 inches today. Good thing I had Blizzaks fitted to the M1N1.
