Got a little worried today. My SA, who sold me his Akra and encouraged a tune other than Dinan just became the Service Manager at Mini. Today I met his replacement and was a little worried about bringing up the tune issue. Turns out he's a huge car guy with a '13 GT500 among other high performance cars.

He and the M tech did a great job of explaining the whine noise and reassured me it's normal.

Question for Paul, Sal or Imran:

What got the car there was an error for the brake wear sensor. They spent a lot of time trying to clear the code but it kept coming back. Also, the car thought I had 300,000 miles on the brakes!!

Eventually they replaced the left front AND rear brake wear sensors. Problem solved. At the time it had the 240E software from Evolve. He said they had to "reprogram" it and now it's fine.

So should I apply the tune you sent me or should I use the Evolve software to read the DME file, copy it and send it to you for an adjusted/updated tune?
