Took my car out for a run today and the AC compressor took a crap and ate the belt.
Oh well, parts don't last forever so it’s time to replace the 13 years old compressor and put on a new belt. -
I ran a few errands today in the MINI. The electric fan ran for a LONG time after I got home.
It got up to about 106F today. It is 104F right now at 6PM. I have my oil topped off, as well as coolant. That's about all I can do for my MINI. I really wish I didn't have that big double sunroof. Even with the darkest tint you can get, it still battles with the AC when it gets this hot outside. The AC keeps the car comfortable, but I have to run it full blast.

They are nice to have. I'm trying to cover my pano roof glass in stickers so I wont need to use them any more

My cabin filter is only a few months old. I'm sure it is fine. The air coming out of the dash vents is cold, too. It is just so hot out.
I'll look into the zipper shades. Thanks!

Couldn’t agree more - I’m a foodie also. But nothing is quite like the Waffle House.
. Always amazes me when they are busy how good their system is for getting orders done.

@Sully I can help clean out that garage, say the word and I'll be there with a trailer

Haven't done any mini stuff for weeks. Last weekend with my 1 day off I spent it riding the Indian. When I get home I will me getting the Helmet out of the garage so I can put the R53 in and put a new AC compressor on it and pull the CAT and see if it runs any better. It is in pitiful running shape! Once I get it in shape it looks like I will be finding it a new home and getting a pickup. -

Best advice,,,,,, don’t buy a new MINI because the market has much better built and more reliable cars for much less.
I have an R53 I am also keeping and will NEVER buy another MINI. * unless it’s a classic mini.
