Mini Cooper Coolant Leaks

We've had Mini Cooper owners come in with questions and observations like these:

"I noticed a chemical type odor coming through the heater vents."

"When I park my car and walk by the hood it smells."

"I see blue liquid under the front of my car. What could it be?"

"Can I drive my Mini Cooper with a coolant leak?"

It's not uncommon for Mini owners to experience problems related to coolant leaks. Some of the older Mini Coopers experience radiator and thermostat housing leaks, but the most common issue is with the water pump.  In fact, some Mini Cooper water pumps have failed on vehicles with under 10,000 miles!

Fortunately, cars with less than 36,000 miles may be able to have this repair service performed under warranty.  This is great for Mini owners because this repair can cost between $800 and $1200 including parts and labor.  The cost varies depending on the other items that will need to be replaced at the same time like coolant, belts and hoses.

If the source of your coolant leak is not obvious then you'll need to have  an auto repair shop like BayDiagnostic  diagnose the problem. There are two common methods. One method is to pressure test the coolant system.  The other method involves adding a dye and checking for leaks with a black light. These tests require about 30 to 60 minutes to perform, so your cost will likely include a 1/2 to one hour diagnostic labor charge.  With the second method, there is also a charge for the dye used to detect the leak.  

If you own a Mini and are experiencing coolant leaks you'll want to get it taken care of.  It's not a good idea to drive a Mini Cooper or any other vehicle with a coolant leak. If your car's engine overheats it can cost many thousands of dollars to replace the engine. Please don't take that chance!

 If you are in the NYC area, we perform these types of repairs on Mini Coopers regularly.  You can find us online @baydiagnostic.com  or just give us a call at 718-615-0705.

Timing Belt Replacement

Audi, BMW, Porsche and Mercedes Timing Belt Replacement - Brooklyn and surrounding areas.

Replacing the timing belt on your Audi, Mercedes, BMW or Porsche may not be your first priority in keeping your import vehicle in tip-top shape, but the results of a failed timing belt can be catastrophic and costly. In fact, a failed timing belt can result in complete engine failure.
The timing belt is absolutely crucial to the proper functioning of the engine. The two internal engine parts, the crank and cam shafts, must work together in perfect rhythm. The timing belt allows these two parts to operate in the proper synchronicity. When the timing belt fails, the damage to the engine can result in thousands of dollars in repairs.
The environment that the timing belt operates is extremely corrosive. They are made out of rubber, which eventually breaks down in the harsh conditions of extremely high temperatures, corrosive materials and mechanical hazards such as metal and hard plastics. Other factors that wear down the timing belt are dust and dirt, extensive idling and stop and go driving conditions.
The experts at BAY DIAGNOSTIC understand the importance of checking such a crucial part of your automobile on a regular basis. Bay Diagnostic mechanics will determine the safety level of your timing belt, and replace it at the appropriate time to avoid belt breakage and serious and costly engine repairs.
