Engine Oil Service

MINI Engine Oil Service (All models): The Service Interval Indicator (SII) calculates the first scheduled engine oil change at approximately 10,000 miles. Change the engine oil and oil filter while engine is at operating temperature. We recommend MINI Synthetic Motor Oil 5W-30, available under part number 07 51 0 143 829. 

NOTE: Once the Service Interval Indicator is reset, all subsequent engine oil changes are calculated at approx. 15,000 mile intervals.
