My complaint is that if the vehicle overheated, I was not aware of it as the driver information gave no alert. Being that the vehicle could no longer be driven with out a costly repair, I chose to donate it for charity. Since it was not economically feasible to repair the vehicle, I was force to purchase an alternate mode of transportation. Upon further inspection, it was determined that the crank case was to badly compromised for adequate repair and the entire engine needed to be replaced at a cost that exceeded the market value of the vehicle. At first is was thought that a replacement cylinder head would cost $9K. The MINIautomotive repair facility speculated that the vehilce must have become overheated to the point of damaging the cylinder head. The core plug failed allowing coolant into the crank case.
