To be clear, did the hot/cold regulating plastic shaft/spindle snap-off/break or what caused the spindle to fail in this way? Surely there must be a simpler way to repair this?

Hi, Thank you for this video. This made me understand the locking process. I have the same problem

Very clever

As always a great video. This is much more involved than the older prince engine. That timing tool looks really expensive. Thanks for taking the time to do the video. keep them coming.

What a shitty location for a spot. My wife’s DME heat module has failed, is it a similar job?

Can u do this without taking out the engine?

Invaluable video. Thank you

How much does this cost 💲 mine needs a new one 😊

Nice to watch a true professional instead of someone guessing their way through the work, good instructional video

Hi, I rotated the engine to check timing with the sump and rocker off. I noticed the oil pp sprocket bolt loosened itself. Is this because I rotated clockwise 3/4 times on the flywheel face and instead should have rotated anticlockwise?

What sort of money for this job in 2024?

They've made this engine bay without any plan.

Hello, thank you for this video, it is very interesting... and in reference to this type of problem I have a Mini Cooper 2008 (R56) BASE. A couple of days ago I went to start the car, put the key, all the lights appeared on the dashboard but it didn't turn on. I tried 3 times to do so and it wouldn't start. The next day I put the key back in and the lights did NOT appear on the dashboard and I thought it was a battery problem. The next day I put the key back in, the dashboard had the lights on and the car started. I'm a little confused with this situation, could you help me figure out what you think the problem could be? I also get a check engine but I already know the problem, I have to change the oxygen sensor. I would greatly appreciate if you could guide me.

I can’t turn my auto stop start off permanently I have to do it every time I drive the car anyone got advice

How did you know the water pump needed to be replaced?

That was great - thanks for putting it together! I particularly liked the instructions when to, or when not to, twat it with a hammer! The engine is out of mine at the moment, so that makes it easier for me!

Hi Hugh, Does the crankshaft locking pin suffice for torque loading the crankshaft bolt, or is a the locking spanner with the three holes recommended? Thanks

Bloody EXCELLENT video - with no oil found in your S/C I'm definitely going to service my daughters!

Beautiful made ,ma Sha Allah 😊

Thanks so much. I will check out the video. 👍🏻😊

Hi. Thanks for the video. Good job. Very comprehensive. One question, is this very similar for the 1.6 Cooper D? Sidney.

That crank bolt is a torque to yield - should alway replace with a new one.

Excellent video, thanks so much professor

Lots of grease and put the subframe upside down and use your bodyweight to push it down while twisting it clockwise. I've done it in 20 min for both. For pulling them use a heat gun and then a crow bar. No problem.

Good luck with the new premises 👍

Superb video thank you

Awesome. Quick and all the info I needed. Nice one.

Hello MiniMaster, absolut great and the best Mini Work Help Video ever seen, its my first Timing Chain i replaced, but with your video that gave me the confidence to it and whats realy great ist your step by step works. For you Thousand Thanks from me. Great Job you'v done👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I was thinking of buying an R53 cooper s up until i seen this video, great video, but faark that, these things look like a shitbox to work on. Il stick to a more practical Japanese cars and enjoy seeing other people drive these mini’s.

Hi, i cant see anything definitive about when you should be changing these. Is it recommended to change these at a certain mileage or age?

Also they are under the lift up piece of boot cover (we found out today )

What time chain kit would you recommend? I hear the Ultra ones are meant to be genuine parts for the PSA engines?

Currently doing this job. My crank locking pin only goes in with the cams 180 degrees out(writing facing down, round bit facing up). If i lock them like this, everything should be fine? Or should i lock the crank, remove the chain, and then rotate the cams to the correct position?

Would you replace crank bearings while the sump is off as a matter of course or are they likely good for many more miles - I am at about 90k and maybe rings whilst engine apart ?

great video. the crankshaft tightening without holding the wrench in the middle was painful to watch though

Love your educational videos. Can you recommend a reasonably priced scanner

This is fantastic! Thank you.

THX man, that was a great help for the upcoming job next month.

Hi. How much does garage charge for this job?

Granulate the inletvalves, ore better with rim cleaner and 10 bar 😂,,,dont Forget to close the valve you are working on😅

Pieces of carbondioxide break lose and inlet valves closes to late

Me done 800 times by Citroën thp this chain Problem, you do Every Thing good, but you Forget the starting from this problem why the chain is getting longer,,,,because it is a direct injection and with all the restrictions you get carbon (koolstof)oxide,,hope i spell it right 😅, on the inlet valves, when this Comes lose it is between youre inlet valves en you get engine misfires,,and eventualy scratches and oil consumpion

They have the same design on a lot of VWs. When i have seen it done on RUclips, its a proper faf. The tooling you need to do the job is nuts.

Hey first of all thanks for such an in-depth tutorial i wondering if i could ask a question ? I have all my locking tools in place and ive replaced the chain and torque spec the crankshaft bolt but when i try to do the additional 90 degrees i got maybe 50 on and the chain kind of clunked round i checked all the locking tools the pin in the crank and and checked the writing was still up and everything was fine just cant understand why its done that i cant get it any tighter without the chain trying to move I've left it till tomorrow now but thought id see if i could get some advice. Thanks again 🙏🏾

Isn't what you call the oil pressure sensor actually the crank sensor??

Car engineers suck 😂they hate mechanics. Mini specials could you do a subscriber a solid? Could you see if it is possible to fit the mini charger on to a Suzuki swift K12b motor. Please like in your spear time or when your having shower thoughts?

Nice

WOW! Great video. Technology and mechanical ability to do this job is over the top. You are a true mechanical surgeon!!

So when the first timing plate is located with 6mm bolt and the pump is in the correct place it locks up but when the pin is located into the flywheel the crank has moved to tdc,so wont the fuel pump now be out if timing?
