I low key could have more friends if I didn’t work on my damn r50 so often😂 this whole month has been Alternator, Fan, Battery, Starter, Oil housing Ignition + Wires Spark plugs Coolant res, Power steering res I’m annoyed but when the car works as intended, man it’s rewarding 🎉
I just rebuilt the engine on my 2003 R50 and changed nearly everything on it. Except the starter. LOL It is SO rewarding to drive! I super agree! It makes the hard work worth it!
Oh my gosh you are hysterical! I Loved this video. You are the 3rd one I watched. My new to me Mini didn't start today and then we banged on the starter and it started. So is there a way to test the starter prior to taking it out?
update: I replaced this... with your help and the Bentley book for me car. Went to start it last night and nothing. No start either. So I'm clearing codes, getting a new key FOB battery and making sure the wires to the solenoid are tight. Anyway, the install was great thanks to your video!
@@happyheartsforLove in my case problem was in ignition module located behind the key barrel, maybe try with that. It's easy to get to, a bit harder to dissemble
Quick update, it was the ignition barrel. Now we start the car by shaking the key while twisting it, yeeey :D

If banging on it helped it's the starter
