I contacted them late on Saturday evening about an issue I was having with my 2023 Mini Cooper about the head unit not working. I had contacted many people who either told me it could not be done or tried charging me a ridiculous amount and still not being able to have a look till February! Northwest were able to respond ASAP and provided me with as much information as possible and kept me updated! They were able to manage my expectations and still had an attempt at the issue for me — and their skill and expertise were proven as they managed to sort out the issue! An amazing experience and would highly recommend to anyone with any similar issues! Fantastic work and will be using them from now on!”

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes — many modern Minis (including F56 / F60 and related platforms) can be coded in a remote helper session. You need a compatible ENET or OBD cable, a stable Windows laptop and fast internet. We guide you through the secure remote portal step by step.
Mini shares BMW Group diagnostic architecture. We use factory-standard ISTA workflows with ENET / OBD interfaces for reads, coding and programming — the same class of tooling dealers use on Mini, not a generic OBD dongle.
Most coding changes settings that are already built into your car's software, and we keep a full backup of your original settings so changes can be reversed. Warranty terms differ by manufacturer, so ask us about your Mini before you book.
Both. Many Mini jobs are done remotely from your driveway; larger flashes or module work may need our North West workshop with battery support. We tell you which path suits your job when you enquire.
We program replacement modules, activate Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on supported head units from around 2015 onwards, and run full-system diagnostics. Share your model and year and we confirm what is possible before booking.
It can — a dealer software update may reset coded settings to factory. We keep a backup of your original state and can re-apply your changes for existing clients after an update.
