SUBJECT
Voluntary Emissions Recall Campaign 04E-A01: Reprogram DME for Tank Leakage Diagnostics

MODEL
MINI Cooper/Cooper S from start of series production through May 2004

SITUATION

To minimize customer's inconvenience caused by this Recall Campaign, you may pick-up (and deliver after repair) the affected vehicle from the customer's home, or provide appropriate alternative transportation.

Customers will be impressed when you return their cars cleaned inside and out and with a full tank of gas. Reimbursement information for the vehicle fueling and valet costs can be found in the Warranty portion of this bulletin.

Copy of the customer notification letter is shown.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
Some of Cooper S vehicles (produced 07/02 - 07/03) affected by this Recall Campaign are also in the range of the Emission Recall Campaign 04E-03: Replace Crankcase Breather Line on MINI Cooper S (refer to service bulletin M11 01 04). Make sure that both recalls are performed during the same service visit.
