    Great as far as it goes, how about how to remove the dust shield from the tire after it’s corroded for 10 years.

      @@jeffdowning4877 It's the most frustrating thing ever. I'm still fighting it. Just busted my hand and came inside to wash off the blood and calm down a bit. I can't seem to get it close enough to the hole through the body. It's a 2 man operation.

    Hi Auto, I cant find the Vanos repair video you mentioned in the 6 cylinder gasket change video

    Excellent video. However I have a 2002 BMW mini one. I purchased it and it has none of the assemblies I see shown here to secure and lower the tire. I only have the open spot that is shown and I do see areas where I can add the equipment I have seen you use. Can you tell me where can I purchase these stuff? Thanks.

    Awesome! Thanks for sharing. I thought I had to lift my 2005 Mini Cooper conv with a jack to get to the tire!🤯😂👍❤️👌

    I believe that the bmw x4 has the same process in lowering its spare tire.

    Thanks for the video. Is there room under 2010 convertible standard Mini for a spare tire? if there is room, where can one buy this mount when Mini Dealer Doesnt' sell it.

    so the only thing holding that heavy tire to the bottom of the car is a little clip into a plastic piece? Good luck getting it back in there....

  • @Freerydah73

    My 2005 r53 mini has a battery inside the trunk. Nothing like this.

    • @freqenc

      So true. My 05 r53 S has a battery there too.

    • @HeroofSomething
      @HeroofSomething 6 років тому

      I believe y’all have the s models, unfortunately those don’t come with spare tires, or at least most people say because of the whole battery issue. The spare tire sucks anyway

  • @hechavarria100
    @hechavarria100 5 років тому
