    The resetting your ecu first to see if that solves anything.

    1. With the key in the ignition, but in the off position, press and hold down the odometer reset button with one hand, while holding the button down, switch the key in the ignition to position 1 (first click) with the other hand.

    2. The screen will have a number and the word “tEStâ€.

    3. Scroll through the numbers by pressing the odometer rest button, through to 19 and wait a moment. (Note: the number order is: 1,2,10,19)

    4.The message will say 19 "L i-off", flash to "L i-on", and back to "L i-off" again. When "log i-off" appears, press the odometer rest button again. You are now in the system.

    5. Scroll through to 21. tESt and wait a moment. 21.0 rESEt will come up. Press the button once.

    6. Your gauges will now make some sounds and movements. Once the lights come back on start your car. You have now reset your ECU and your MINI is now ready to relearn the new mods and your driving style.

    These cars can sometimes be full of gremlins ;-)
