Battery Replacement on Mini Cars

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

Open the bonnet and insert the support rod. Your battery is located at the top left when facing the vehicle (this procedure applies to all Mini cars with the battery housing in this location). Remove the two screws on the left using a ratchet spanner, take off the seal in front of the battery compartment, and detach the entire upper plastic cover. Unscrew the long screw that secures the battery, which is located at the front of the battery itself. Disconnect the left connector, unscrew the positive and negative terminals, and remove the battery. Install the new one by reversing the procedure.
