One problem related to water pump has been reported for the 2009 Mini Cooper S Clubman. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Took in for oil change, burning smell, and rattling sound when engine cold. I was given a list after they had a few days material failure of oil pan gasket, oil filter housing leak, turbo oil feed line leak, material failure of thermostat housing, material failure of water pump, and material failure of timing chain, timing chain guides, tensioner. I ended with a total repair cost of $4,666. 30. Two weeks later I again have a burning smell and the trim covering the turbo charger cracks. I am told this is normal and it is just out of the 5 year warranty on this even though I have an extended cosmetic warranty. In December the check engine light comes on but goes off after I call dealer. I am told if it is off, may just be emmisions error. On 2/20/2015, my oil pressure light goes on, dealer has no openings until 2/23/15. I take in and now it has more issues, stems and valves, which will be another $2k in repairs. It is still not due for oil change but I had requested one since I was there. It is low on oil due to valve and the engine issue. All of these issues are identical to a those vehicles with the tensioner,water pump, turbo feed line recall. . . . . But yet I am told mine does not have the recall on it.
