Irritating Warning Light by CeeeeCeeee

My late husband had a very expensive Mercedes and the "Service Engine" light would not stay off! He decided that after numerous attempts to have the dealership's mechanics take care of the problem, without success, he would take care of the problem himself. He taped a small, circular bandaid over the light. By the way, he was a physician. Best wishes!

Wowser- good to hear that things are working out for you.
 
Yup, my car has been fixed.
 
I took it to a third party and learned mid-repair stream that MINI Corp. was willing to help/assist with the cost. OUCH, it was too late!
 
In any event, I am now trying to get a good trade-in. If you have any ideas or tips please let me know as I am encountering some friction from the dealership.
 
Well, I am off to work on my "MINI Cooper Happy Endings" trade-in campaign.
  
 
Thanks and special thanks to "ramquist" for the great advice.

Clattering Sound from the Clutch? by 00m58

I just purchased a 05 Mini Cooper with a 5-speed manual transmission with 37,000 miles from a private party few months ago.
I have driven only 600 miles so far, but lately I have started to hear a clattering sound from the clutch/flywheel? when the car is at stop with the gear in neutral.
Can anyone tell me if this is something that may be related to all the clutch problems posted in this forum and should be looked at immediately by a mechanic?
And would you recommend to take it to a dealer or private repair shop?
 
Thanks,
