33,124 miles 01/31/12 vehicle was making noises, brought in to service, Mini said they would need to inspect the car closer to see what was going on. I scheduled a service and loaner for 2/1/12 (report said that there were misfire issues, I was not informed. . . Until I noticed it on the report a week later)
