I had my fair share of hiccups when I first got my SE too. For fast charging, it should keep going even if it’s locked, so if it’s stopping, there could be a small glitch. Try a different fast charger, and if the issue persists, a quick dealer check-up might be in order. The 80% cap is pretty...

That snap sound would definitely freak me out! But it sounds like a classic case of the brakes sticking after sitting for a while, especially after washing it. Even in a heated shop, moisture can still cause a little surface rust on the rotors, which is why they felt locked. I’ve had a similar...

I get where you’re coming from! Cold morning drives with a warm steering wheel sound great, especially when gloves don’t always do the trick. It should be possible to install a heated steering wheel, but you’ll need to replace your current one and possibly run new wiring. Since your car didn’t...

I’d personally be hesitant about drilling into the bumper of a brand-new 2023 Mini SE, especially considering the potential differences in the bumper design for the electric model versus the regular F56. 😒 Also, the kit might interfere with the PDC sensors, which could lead to constant beeping...

Hmmmm activating the rear fogs is a great little DIY that’ll add some cool functionality to your SE. If you’ve got a Bimmercode, and the adapter, you’re halfway there already. You might need a bit of coding though. When you open Bimmercode, navigate to the ‘Body Domain Controller,’ then look for...
