Talking about A pillars: I was driving the Mini Cooper on the highway around 60 mph. Suddenly, the A pillar cover flew away! Apparently this is a common issue on this model. Replacement parts (pillar cover and gasket) have been ordered.

Edit: I decided to get the pump sprocket and outer rotor WPC treated, so I disassembled the pump (again) and separated those parts for shipment.
