Episode 71 – Tires, lending out a MINI, and Tiny Explosions Under the Hood
Manage episode 490295030 series 3550535
This week on The Cooper Cast, we dive into the swirling vortex that is the MINI Cooper Facebook universe. Dale and Producer Kodi (yes, he speaks!) sort through posts and questions that are on the minds of MINIacs everywhere.
- Thinking about switching from 205 to 215 tires? We break down the pros, the cons, and why those extra millimeters might just be your MINI’s new best friend.
- Run Flats vs. Conventional Tires — a battle as old as R53 check engine lights.
- Someone loaned their MINI to a family member and came back with a brake issue. Oops. Let’s unpack that.
- And finally, we give a little love to your MINI’s coil packs — the unsung heroes until they go on strike.
It’s all wrapped in the usual banter, helpful advice, and MINI community shout-outs. So grab a coffee, fire up the episode, and motor safely. And yes, don’t forget to wave — especially if your tires are a little wider this week.
