1- had a half inch of water in the front driver’s side of the mini yesterday morning as the windscreen seal has decided to leak. (I believe it’s when im parked on a downhill angle, still testing that theory)
2- Last night I also realised that the engine steady rubber near the master cylinders need replacing.
^ As a consequence to that the exhaust has a 20 cent piece hole in it where it mounts to the gearbox where it decided to break off. (Considerably less torque and power replaced with a sh!tload more noise. :roll: ) going to enjoy that with my 50 km motorway round trip each day.
3- Windscreen wipers, breaklights and indicators stopped working just when you need those most.... last night in the rain. (Got that all sorted with a spare fuse within 10 minutes).

And another half inch of water in the car again this morning: D

but hey at least the disk brakes got assembled yesterday :twisted:

Now I know why with a mini everydays an adventure.

might need to look at your rubber grommets, there supposed to let the water out

Those engine steadys are a fine piece of engineering design, made so that there is plenty of leverage to crack the body nice and quick.
