Rough idle noise solved. Was rounding a corner the other day (NOT FAST MIND YOU) when the oil light blinked on and then went back off. I checked the oil and it was low, added another quart, no rough idle. Though this morning it idled rough for a second or two when I started it. I can't figure out if it might be leaking it or if it just burned off the oil. Hadn't changed the oil since autocross ended last year and need to soon probably.

if there's one thing ive learned about mini's is they tend to use oil and coolant for that matter with such as small capacity anything over a quart low starts causing a multitude of issues.
