• 10150399Dec 1, 2012Engine cooling. "Service Action: Retrofit of the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor. Internal corrosion could form in the engine coolant temperature sensor. This corrosion leads to internal bridging of the contacts, which can cause an inaccurate engine temperature reading. This false reading could lead to difficulty in the engine starting and/or a ""Service Engine Soon"" lamp being illuminated."
• 10046779Dec 1, 2012Engine, Engine cooling. Mini: on engine coolant temperature sensor, internal corrosion might be forming, causing a false, inaccurate engine temperature reading, leading to difficulty in starting engine and/or a service engine soon illumination. Models 2010-2012 r55, r56, r57, r58 (cooper, cooper s-convertible, clubman, hardtop, coupe). *pe updated 1/18/13. *pe updated 3/11/2013

• 10150347Oct 1, 2012Engine cooling. During Engine Oil Service a Small O-Ring Is Found in the Oil Filter Housing. No customer complaint has been received. During the scheduled engine oil service, the technician notices a black rubber o-ring lying on the bottom of the engine oil filter housing. The o-ring has been dislodged from the non-return valve inside the engine oil filter housing. No subsequent engine damage occurs from the dislodged o-ring.
• 10049421Oct 1, 2012Engine, Engine cooling. Mini: engine coolant temperature sensor, now an individual component due to change in wiring harness and replacement of harness has two separate two pin connectors, where one for coolant temperature sensor and other coolant thermostat. All models built up to 3/2012.
• 10043722Feb 1, 2012Fuel system. Mini: information provided regarding procedure of replacing fuel level sensor due to failure on the right and/or left side.
• 10043877Jan 1, 2012Fuel system. Mini: the tank ventilation valve (purge valve) no longer needs to be replaced due to improved results of teileclearing.
• 10043873Jan 1, 2012Fuel system, Engine cooling. Mini: service engine soon is illuminated due to tank ventilation valve (tev) being jammed open and fuel cap, with evaporative system leakage, was incorrectly installed.
• 10040187Mar 1, 2011Steering. Bmw: information on the bumper bracket casting failure and replacement.
• 10040741Feb 1, 2011Engine cooling. Bmw: engine too hot message is displayed with stored trouble codes. The water pump doesnt power up.
