How to replace the battery in the Mini Cooper?

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

As we can see in this tutorial, replacing the battery in the Mini Cooper is a very quick and easy operation. Before proceeding, make sure that the key is not inserted in order to operate in complete safety. Once this is done, we open the bonnet, remove the plastic battery cover and unscrew the bolts of the upper fixing bracket. Next, we loosen the nuts of both terminals and disconnect them, always starting with the negative. At this point we can grab the battery, extract it from the housing and insert the spare one. Let's reconnect the positive pole first.
