Question Details Asked:Feb 11, 2013 - 04:37 PMStatus:Open

candleman	Carbon build up problem on Mini Cooper. I saw your question and responded with a link to discussion of the issue. I'd like to know how much the repair cost (I was quoted $900 by dealer in Atlanta) and if you were told that this problem WILL reoccur every 30K miles or so? Based upon a quickie perusal of: http://www.northamericanmotoring.com/fo r... Do you or any other experts have comment or advice to share on direct fuel injected systems? Based upon the chronic problems, WHY would anyone buy a car with these?
