CHEAPEST R53 MINI SURPRISINGLY BREAKS DOWN, PLEASE HELP.

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

When Cheapest running and driving turns into... Cheapest Mini :)
Alright, so here's the story was driving the Mini Cooper S to meet up with a friend. Geting the revs to about 5k RPM shifting from 2nd to 3rd, its shurs off and with the momentum I had, was able to park safely.
The video picks up after this.
So I do seriously need some advice or help, with this project centering around being cheap, taking it to a shop at this point is the last option, but if diagnosed and I know exactly what's broken, then a shop comes back into play.
Thanks in advance!

    Just a suggestion. Lift the back seat, take a small hammer (or anything) and tap on the top of the fuel pump cover. Try to start the car after that. If it starts, replace your fuel pump. When they're older and sit for a while, months, sometimes the need a little boost.

    I have tried that. I'm seeing no spark as well. I think it's an issue with the ews. But can't confirm since odb2 port isn't working right. I'm trying to figure out which pin in the ecu sends power to the odb2 port

    @@dontbekurt Sorry that didn't help. It could be a long diagnosis not being there in person. Might also check power to the coil connection as well. Some people route it too close to the exhaust. I noticed the Virginia plate, I'm in Chesterfield, VA with our 4 MINIs.

    @@Mini-Driver funny, yeah that’s where the Mini is registered, Chesterfield VA. Originally the idea was to fix it up here in Missouri and send it back.

    @@dontbekurt If you come back out here, give me a shout, maybe we can meet up. Good luck with the diagnosis. We have two R53s and 2 R52 S Models. Getting ready to change transmission & clutch on one of the convertibles.
