Where is the fuel filter of the 2016 Mini Cooper located?

Model: Mini Mini F56, F57, F54, F55 - Years 2014-2023
Part: Diesel fuel filter

The fuel filter on a 2016 Mini Cooper vehicle is located outside the vehicle specifically under the rear bumper next to the exhaust pipe. The filter replacement should be done at least once a year and can be done independently or in a workshop. In case the engine malfunction light turns on, it may be necessary to replace the filter months in advance because the filter is damaged and cannot retain dirt residues, which end up directly in the tank. The cost of a new filter is €15.00, available for purchase online or in auto parts stores.
