    Looks like a Mynes tune... :(

    Bet it ran like hell, or at least the occupants did.

    There's probably a bunch of those original EHPS pump/motor units that are still running around out there, just waiting to short out... :frown2:

    Most likely a water pump failure from a failed circuit board. Excessive heat from lack of turbo cooling!

    Sad turbo mini's never should have existed!

    That isn't a turbo MINI. It's an R50 with a burning P/S pump me thinks.
