Trying to ring minimod for the past 2 days and no one is answering. Are they on holiday or something that I don't know about?


SecretSugar
Oh the temptation to park the mini bumper to bumper...that will teach the 2 space hogging swines! Lets see you get out of that then!

Theres a house near my daughters school what has a 1984 austin mini rusting away off road. It hasnt moved in years! Such a sad sight

-

Give it a few months and ask again. It can be tragic, I know of an Austin 7 that has sat for twenty years rusting into nothing. I have asked repeatedly and am always told 'I am going to restore it'. The guy is now cracking on 70 and the car is beyond saving. Really sad.

Tell me about it, that's all I hear at the moment. I can only imagine people can't let go for sentimental value and then realise its needing work, can't afford it or get round to it and it just wastes away.

Had a lady in Tesco spot our red mini, she mentioned to her young son that it was like hers but its in the garage. I asked to if she wanted to sell. She said "Oh no, its part of the family even though its been in the garage 20 years waiting for her partner to restore. I had to hold back tears!

Damn immobiliser! It use to be click twice and start up and go, now whilst out and about it turned into a game of pacman and clicking the buttons hundreds of times, plus light isn't working well....you temperamental little rascal! Ah well...still love it!

If you disconnect the battery and leave for hlf hour, reconnect then do the procedure to sync the fob back to the ecu you should be good to go after that. Mine plays up all the time and the method always works :)

If it helps, it's not year specific except for the knuckle joint (if it's a sportspack). You should be able to source it no problem :)
