Mini Cooper battery replacement

Model: Mini Mini R57, R55, R56 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Battery

In this video tutorial we will see how to remove and replace the battery of a Mini Cooper. First we open and lift the car's engine hood and remove the top gasket together with the plastic cover that covers the battery; then we go to unclip the two clamps (positive and negative pole) and extract the old battery, pulling it upwards. At this point we reassemble the new one (of the right type and with the right amperage) and reconnect the two terminals; finally, replace the plastic cover and reset the battery indicator using a specific software.
