Hi, I have had my mini cooper SE for 3-4 months now but I just noticed that I had paint rubbing off in the door jams on both sides! Anyone else noticed that? I bought the car brand new so quite surprising!
Hi Sadde. Yes, this issue has affected me and others on this and other Mini forums. I noticed the rubbing after only 400 miles or so. It’s a known fault with a fix for the symptoms at least at the dealer. see this thread for more info: https://www.insideevsforum.com/community/index.php?threads/does-the-f56-paint-rubbing-issue-affect-the-se.12575/#post-159255
Take the TSB to the dealership and they will fix it for you. Mine started not even a week from taking delivery and the dealership fixed it after I gave them the TSB print out.
I picked up a pre cut kit from here: https://innovativepaintprotectionsolutions.com/collections/mini-collection Really fast delivery and fits perfect. Basically invisible once installed too! Rather protect it now than have to go to MINI after the wear has taken hold…
