Small car, specific needs
Minis share a lot of engineering with BMW, including condition-based service reminders and specific oil requirements. We follow your Mini’s reminders and owner’s manual. See our oil change options.
Tires and handling
Minis are known for go-kart handling, which depends on good tires, correct pressure and a proper alignment. Wheel alignment testing is free.
Keeping it cool
Compact engine bays run warm; keep coolant on schedule and know what to do if your car overheats.
