Got my letter a week ago and had it done yesterday. Nice and shiny again - first time the car was washed all winter!

Bought my 2011 MCS this past January 14th, 2012 as it was the last 2011 on the lot and was offered a great deal on it as dealer probably just wanted to move inventory. Saw the recall on the news 3 days after purchase and emailed my MINI agent about it. Was told that dealer had taken care of it already prior to selling it to me and the recall being all over the news. So I have been driving my car without worry the past 3.5 months and luckily no problems aside from a flat tire. Anyway, today I get a letter from MINI telling me I am part of recall after all...very disappointed that my MINI agent gave me misinformation regarding this recallbut glad I got the letter, and my MCS will get this recall done

You may find that the car has had the recall done already when you take it in. MINI will err on sending a letter to an already recalled vehicle rather than not send one.

My wife took her car in last week for the recall, they did the test drive, came back and decided it was making noise under the valve cover, so they decided to replace the timing chain and guides. So we are done with the dreaded timing chain debacle also
