A fast and definitive guide video for a 2011 Mini Cooper S Oil Change. This video shows the entire process: lifting the car, draining oil, prepping new parts and filling/check the oil, replacing filters. This how to guide works for all model years of the 2nd generation (Gen2) Mini Cooper R56 Hatchback (2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013). It's not a convertible or clubman or countryman, but should be similar processes. Should also work for JCW and coupe models.
Even if you're just looking for a video on how to change the oil on your 2011 Mini Cooper S, this is the best oil change guide. It never hurts to check your filters with every oil change and if you need spark plugs done, you can check out the full 60K Service here: • The Complete DIY Guide...
