My 05 mini cooper stalled on me as I came to a complete stop. I change the filter and pump the engine still won't start. Also my car keeps saying I need a new gas cap. Does this have to do anything with the pressure?

That message is due to a loose or missing gas cap.
I can't help without knowing what is missing from the system when you are trying to start it. When your engine doesn’t start you’ll want to check the basics. Check spark, fuel injector pulse and fuel pressure, volume, quality and engine compression. Are there any fault codes? Once you figure out what is missing, it will be easier to diagnose. - Nick |
