Mini - Video tutorial

Model: Mini Mini R50, R52, R53 - Years 2001-2007
Part: Antifreeze liquid
Operation: Radiator fluid replacement instructions

Raise the car on a lift and remove the plastic triangle immediately under the air conditioning compressor; the radiator hose is located at this point: loosen the fixing clamp of the hose and remove it so as to let all the coolant out. Then reposition the sleeve with the relative clamp and refit the triangular protective casing. Finally fill the refrigeration system with the appropriate liquid (it is possible to buy both the ready-to-use one and the concentrated one to be diluted) through the tray; start the engine and let it warm up until the fan starts.

How do I unlock the fuel filler flap of the Opel Meriva B?

To be able to unlock the fuel filler flap of the Opel Meriva B when it is locked, you need to have an object that acts as a lever to be able to move the inner wheel arch cover. By inserting your hand inside, you will need to pull the latch that blocks the door from the inside, as shown in the video. The fuel flap can be opened by pulling the latch from the inside. The problem depends on the motor of the mechanism: by going to the dealership it will be possible to replace the entire piece, which will be under warranty for two years and will allow you to refuel in peace.
