You better off going on a bini forum mate. Much more knowledge on there about the new minis! This is mainly for classics.... But what is wrong with the engine? Someone MAY know :)

To put the above more politely, this is predominantly a Classic Mini forum. Try sites such as Totalmini or Mini2 for better answers. 

 

The only problem I have had with the supercharged 1.6 is the bypass valve can sometimes not close fully causing a loss of boost. What sort of problems are you having?

As above, more info needed on the issues bud! There are a few but the engines themselves are pretty solid units as long as they're looked after.
