What problems can a Mini have with its ignition key?
Years 2014-2023

Answer

A problem with the ignition key for your Mini could be a key that for some reason has lost its coding, or has been damaged for some reason (it happens to keys too, and even those on new cars). In this case, the only way is to take the key to the Dealer who will recognize the part as faulty and replace it under warranty.
