My car has more than 75k miles at this moment. It's recommended to do a maintenance to the supercharge at 100k miles and change the water pump. Jan, would recommend to change the M45 for the R900 instead than rebuilt it? Does it worth it?

it will be much better than the factory charger

Its not that hard or expensive to service it, i would just do it.

Found that on Auto X Cross MINI website:

Quote:Obsolete! Attention MINI Cooper S owners with cars built before July 2004. As of May 2012 your M45 is obsolete. The units made after 7/04 are also disappearing fast. Before you send your M45 to someone that can do it for less please understand that when it fails again you may not be able to rebuilt it a 2nd time? Some rebuilt units can't be rebuilt a 2nd time due to the damaged caused by the 1st rebuilder. Remember you are making an INVESTMENT in your car, invest wisely. As with all parts you can only have two of the following; Fast delivery, Great product or Low cost. Choose wisely.

So, if that info is true, the M45 for the MINI Cooper S is going obsolete. In the video on the same page stated the 2gears on the water pump side are custom made for the MINI and BMW and Eaton don't supply them. Going to the R900 could make more sense.

Trusting Auto X Cooper is like trusting that a rattle snake wont bite you.
