Mini Cooper Maintenance Schedule
Mini Cooper Inspection maintenance interval as required by instrument counter:
Driving pattern and condition based intervals are monitored for the next required Mini maintenance interval. Parts replacement is outlined in the Mini Cooper owner’s manual. Complete mechanical vehicle safety check and electrical scans as service interval factory requirement performed.
Low mileage annual Mini Cooper oil changes per factory requirement:
Keeping the correct quality oil with Mini Cooper chemical requirements is essential for long engine life to avoid internal sludge damage. Annual oil change required if mileage for regular service interval is not achieved. Required filters & oils inside the Mini Cooper maintenance schedules replaced as needed. Complete mechanical vehicle safety check and electrical scans as Mini Cooper service interval factory requirement performed.
Mini Cooper Bi-annual brake fluid system flush:
Moisture accumulates in the brake fluid and if left too long in system over time, causes corrosion to critical moving parts. These moving parts bind and freeze-up causing stopping distance and safety to be affected.
Mini Cooper Tri-annual coolant system flush:
Factory long life Mini Cooper required coolant/antifreeze (blue) ensures system longevity. Mixing other types of non-factory designed fluid will sludge and become syrup like, causing system collapse and unnecessary added expense. Antifreeze/coolant system protection becomes weak and will not dissipate heat or freezing temperatures as needed. Cooling system left unattended will also corrode associated parts and heavy metal build-up in radiator, heater and engine passages will cause restriction leading to failures.
Mini Cooper CBS (Conditional Based Service) per instrument maintenance counter:
This system picks the needed single component as required for replacement or calibration per vehicle monitored system for replacement. MINI has pre-programmed monitors that can immediately turn on a dash maintenance message for service requirements.
Mini Cooper 60K-100K Mile Spark Plug service:
Long Life MINI factory quality spark plugs are required parts and essential for best performance and reliability. Aftermarket plugs can cause internal engine damage and unnecessary repair expense.
Mini Cooper 100K Fuel Filter Service on most vehicles:
Fine internal filter screens stop dirt particles from entering fuel injection system. Unattended, will cause fuel injector restriction, power loss, reduced fuel mileage and associated part failure.
Mini Cooper Transmission Service per factory requirement:
All transmissions, stick or automatic need Mini Cooper required service with filters, seals and gaskets replaced as design required. Different transmission designs need different service intervals with specific MINI factory oil requirements. Incorrect fluid type will cause irreversible damage and quick failure. Over extending the transmission designed maintenance schedule causes fluid to become weak, filters become restricted and internal overheating will occur, causing excessive wear. Left unattended, eventual complete failure will occur.
