How to change the engine oil of a Mini Cooper

Model: Mini Mini R53, R50, R52 - Years 2001-2007
Part: Engine oil

Before we can begin, we will have to open the front hood of our Mini Cooper. We then start by unscrewing and removing the top cap from where the engine oil is inserted. After that, we will have to lift the front of our car. Once this is done, we will have reached the lower leakage nut, which we will have to unscrew and remove, thus allowing all the engine oil to flow out. When the oil has completely flowed out, we will have to screw the lower cap back on, and then lower the front. At this point, we will have to insert the new oil through the upper hole. When we have completed this step, we will have to screw the relevant cap back on, and the replacement will be finished.
