Another cool daily vlog. Thank you Pete. Matt from Australia 🇦🇺

Another good video mate, love the way the dogs just mooch around in the background :)

I can certainly relate to your stated level of mechanical expertise! I too have done flat panel air filter replacements...AND also re-filled the windshield washer reservoir! Funny thing, I bought the MINI Bentley Service Manual for our MINI Roadster S..but think I need to go to school to understand it! I do enjoy the pictures though ;-). Thanks for the videos....and stay safe!

Mate, Charlie’s looking a lot better de-chromed. Amazing what a difference it’s made. It’ll be interesting if/when you do the door handles too. Looking forward to seeing that. Fun video today Pedro 👍

Love these daily blogs. Keep it up. Glad to know there is someone as bad as me at DIY on cars.

Another very entertaining vid, thanks Pete. Lockdown - Am I alone in thinking when I see the traffic on our roads, "Where's everyone going? Surely, they can't all be going to essential work or the supermarket..".

I was hooked until the pooches arrived on camera ! It's funny all the stuff we used to do , cone filters , webber carbs , hi output coils , plugs , updated leads. Now in 10 minutes you plug a tuning box to the fuel rail sensor and on the turbo boost , ta da 15 -20 % power boost! Think you might get more noise at the higher revs. Some ideas. Modern driving aids. Active lane assist driving the car , self park , front assist, Adaptice cruise. I know you cannot be out in the car to explain these things but many drivers never use them as it's a dark art! Give an explanation or discus. Remember my first experience of front assist with scooters diving in front of my car in San Tropez causing it to slam on the brakes! Another DIY mod could be interior panel gap trim. Just pushes into dash or door trims to liven up interior. I have some chrome red for Ateca , just no time. Keep safe.

Well done on having a go. Also really liked the fact you felt it not right to video in the car when on lockdown so cut the video shorter than normal. Massive respect to you for that

I had to change insurance companies because I fitted an AEM induction kit to my R56. Unreal. However I can say it was the best engineered and quality aftermarket piece of kit I've ever fitted to my cars. The bonnet scoop is now functional after opening the holes out. Increase of 14bhp on paper. Panel filters generally don't give much of a difference to performance (or intake noise). Keep up the good work.

Wow...people can keep sending mod bits to you for ever...there are so many mini mods available...looking forward to many more of these fantastically entertaining videos...

Just a bit of fun changing an airfilter but no-one else has done that so as the Americans are fond of saying "Good Job". I fitted a washable air filter to my Volvo a couple of years ago, because the paper ones are utter rubbish and don`t last long before they are clogged up, not good, much better air flow, so there!!!

Nice one Mike Hodder! A hero amongst men 👍

Ive had no problems with my K&N panel filter on my 120d after 65k.120k miles now no smoke of any sort or no dreaded timing chain rattle lol.Although i ignore the ridiculous service interval of around 20k miles gone to 8-10k max.Mobil one only,also only shell/esso/bp fuel.Every 3rd tank superdiesel,well now every other seeing as its so cheap lol. Swapped to pipercross couple months ago.Then changed back to K@N within 3 days as I could feel the difference,not really in sound but in pickup at low revs.Great vid as usual 👍👍😁

See I already thought you had put it in upside down, I’m as nervous as you on just opening the bonnet. Had my F56 five years and think I’ve opened the bonnet four times. 😁 Well the car checks the oil properly after a short drive and on the flat.

Inspired me to order a K&N filter for our Pug 208 GTI this afternoon, cheers! 😁👍

On the Gen1 R53 Cooper S the bonnet vent cools the Supercharger intercooler.

Hi Pete.....Entertaining as always I hope this makes improvements to Charlie’s performance.Feedback would be interesting to see what your thoughts are between the existing filter and the new one.....After all that work.......I hope you didn’t forget to get the milk for the tea.

Fitted a K&N panel air filter (2 min job) to my JCW F56 = Deeper sound, turbo/waste-gate hissing, exhaust sounds better and more responsive especially overtaking.

You would need to reset your ecu for the car to recognise the changes immediately else it would take the car a few kilometres to figure out the air flow has changed. Yes and the intake will sound louder and the output does increase by 5 to 8% roughly. Enjoyed watching your video Pete 👍

Hmm Waitrose in Chichester 37miles of country roads. Wonder whether I’ll get away with claiming I’m just nipping to the shops.

Fair to say Pete looks underwhelmed :)

I put a pipercross in my cooper S and it did make the turbo flutters louder but that's about it. Though I do like those flutters then the few pops and bangs in sport mode.

They designed that induction path to keep water out of the airbox. If you do get a kit to open up the bonnet scoop make sure it has a path to reduce water ingress. 30% more airflow from 50% thinner filter and 80% less filtration sounds about right. Air filters tend to be one of the least cost effective upgrades. The filter may flow a little more air at high revs but how often are you doing that. The rest of the time the standard filter will provide all the air the car needs.

Alright Pete, well done mate 👏 👍. I think you need to invest in a decent set of tools though. You should never be afraid of trying to do things yourself, I was changing 2.0 litre pinto engines for mates when I was as young as 15 years old using just a rope around my neck and standing on the strut tops, probably explains why I've had 6 major ops on my lower back and neck and over 30 minor procedures under sedation lol. I can't moan about it now. Thought I was invincible at that age. I have fitted an ITG race filter in my R53 and it did make some improvement, but the MSD ignition coil and leads and Iridium Spark plugs are definitely the best gains I've had on my car, and the larger Airtec intercooler! I shall say no more about other mods lol. Take care mate stay safe 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🏁

Hi Peter. Not my car, but I'd change the alloys. These ones kinda look like they've all been curbed five times due to the design around the rim. Some quality black alloys would look good to me. the whole car needs to look a bit meaner overall.

There’s a fine fleet of MINIs in the neighbours house, Pete!

That is NOT going to increase airflow into the engine by 30%. Sorry but they are having you on there. At best it will be 5% improvement over a paper filter, with maybe 1 or 2bhp max improvement. Dont forget to wash it every 6000 miles also. Oh and take it out before you put it in for its dealer service. Otherwise they will void your engine warranty.

@dj_paultuk7052

One of the guys on the A class forums had his A45 engine warranty made void just by an air filter. So i take mine out just before every service and put the paper one back in. I do not notice any power improvement what so ever. But you do get a little more induction noise that is normally silenced by the paper filter.

First thing I did to Penelope: K&N Filter, then the dealer installed Dinan Elite Tune, and that does not void warranty. Yields about another 50 hp, and about 60 ft pounds of torque. For the stock F56 these made a significant difference.

I particularly like the MINI John Cooper Works Clubman Two Tone Paint Colour

30 years ago I fitted a pancake filter to my Mk1 Fiesta Ghia (with turquoise seats and a brown tinted sunroof, nice!). It had twin webber carbs and could out drag my mates '86 Astra GL. Had a great brraaaahp sound to it. Performance filters should in theory make more power with modern engines due to the MAF monitoring the air flow and making adjustments to fuel pressure, so engines won't burn lean. Otherwise the performance will be worse. I'm sure I'll be corrected if I'm wrong, its been 28 years since college and I ended up being a carpenter not a mechanic!

I just knew it would be Waitrose 👍

if it's like my BMW the screws actually don't come out the top cover unless you screw them out as they are retained in place, when you unscrew them they go loose when they are out of the lower part of the box then they go tight again when you try and unscrew them out of the upper part.

Ditto, I did the same on a 3 litre V6 Capri. Unfortunately the engine was running as the screw disappeared into the carbs. Major panic .Removed the manifold between the 'V' to look for it... hey presto water flooded out into the valve ports! Failed to realise it had waterways in it doh! Didn't know which side of the 'V' it went.... So eeny meeny time. Obviously I chose the wrong bank as no screw to be seen, so both heads had to come off. So... head gasket x2, water manifold gasket, carburettor gasket required before reassembly.. .Late Sunday by now so no chance! Had to get public transport to work all the following week whilst waiting for the parts. Took the whole of the following weekend to reassemble, refill with water & antifreeze and sort out the air lock. After all this, the screw was nowhere to be seen. Very baffling....until I reversed the car out of the garage...where it was observed lying on the floor 😮😥😖😠🥴. Either it didn't fall into the engine in the first place, or it was flushed out of the manifold in the torrent of coolant. So... never underestimate a 20 minute job!

Panel filters always best - all the benefits of cone filters (the full expensive inclosed cold feed induction systems maybe more benefit) but without the hot air heat sock halfords DIY cone systems give. Believe that bonnet scoop was purely for the first generation Cooper S and extra cooling for the supercharger that sat directly behind it, now as you say fake does nothing as turbocharged - BMW just see fit not to remove it from a style point of view.

It's not an Allen key, it is a Torx screw and they also make a tamper proof version, who says you can't go the long way to the shops, I have to go to two different shops to get my weekly shop, they are 500m apart on the same road. They are smaller shops and therefore less people and my one store is also Waitrose, (there are also different shops available). Think of some of the F1 guys stuck in Monaco they can't use their cars at all. I wish I lived at Goodwood he has a racetrack round his house, the Goodwood hill climb.

The bonnet “intake” on the R53 was more or less there to get some cool air to the supercharger. I’d rather have a standard bonnet on a new mini S car than a pretend vent... imo
