problem #1

Mar 182014

Cooper 4-cyl

  • 44,740 miles
The dealer informed me my oil feed lines to the turbo were leaking and would need to be replaced soon. After doing some research found the couplings that attaches these lines to the turbo are defective. The dealer says there is not a recall and will cost approx: $1200. The dealer installed a turbo shield to help with the heat that is causing the line to prematurely fail. With so many affected shouldn't MINIbe fixing this issue.
