Whats up guys and welcome back to a special episode. In this episode i will be tearing down my first gen R53 mini cooper S and changing the clutch. Car isnt engaging so i know there is something wrong internally since i've done everything possinble externally.

You know I did think about that and second guessed it. In retrospect I think that deffinetly was a better route to go.

Got a video of explaining that ? I dont see how you can drop that transmission without doing the sub frame first

Hey it's a little unclear of what your issue is but it sounds like you might have low oil level or bad oil sensor. Sounds like you might be getting a false reading.

@@Brayden_Robinson as with any light weight flywheel you'll always get a little chatter. I dont even hear them really anymore because I've been running light weight flywheels on almost all my cars for years now. You loose a little torque but gain HP with light weight flywheels.

Alhue Gayle the car power between a stock and racing clutch and I’m asking because I have a 2005 mini a stock and ik theses cars don’t make that much power but they are really fun to play with and if the clutch is going to give me alil more fun then I’ll be welling to buy it?

@@fernandoolivares2558 well there is a major difference in performance between a performance clutch and stock clutch. For starters the peddle feel is a lot more firm and shorter engagement. Second the grab and hold of a performance clutch is night and day to a stock clutch. Lots of benifits with a performance clutch over stock. I'm not selling the clutch and make nothing if you get one or not but I always upgrade clutch and flywheel if money permits. Good luck brother.
