how exactly do you fry a standard ecu apart from chucking it in a pan with some olive oile and some garlic??????

C'mon Minime.:) Time to spill the beans.:) How the h*ll did you manage to wreck the engine in that motor :I:question:

it is apparently a fault with the engine that is mated to the CVT gearbox...more than one of these replacements have taken place apparently...

get Lenore to take it easy from now on!!:eek::blackeye::p

Cooper S Auto's don't have a CVT gearbox. The CVT is in the Cooper CVT. It's OK, but nothing like as punchy as the 'S Auto. The 'S Auto box is made by Aisin and is the same that's in the Audi TT. And I've only heard of ONE of these boxes going down (Someone on MINI2.com).

Try again O Jedi master....;)

OK, OK got the wrong name for it - still half asleep.:I Basically the flappy paddle gearbox that you and minime has, there have been problems with the engines and that is what happened to his car, nothing apparently to do with the way he drives it!!:eek::blackeye::p

And this comes from Mr Broon himself I take it? Suppose he has to blame someone/thing. I wonder if he's told all his customers there's "Problems" with this gearbox.;);)
