Hello everyone
I have just picked up my first Mini - a 2000 X reg Mini Cooper Sport in Anthracite, with only 5,000 miles on the clock!
I love it to bits already, but I have noticed that when the engine is under 2000 revs, it judders a lot (as if its about to stall) but it does it in every gear, but once I am over 2000 revs, the engine is perfect! Any ideas of what it could be?? One of my friends thinks it might be the engine mounts as apparently they need changing ever 2-3 years, but the cars only done 5k and has never been wet!!
Any help would be much appreciated
Paul
