How to replace the battery in the Mini Cooper?

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

In this tutorial we can see how to replace the battery in the Mini Cooper. For this we need a 10mm socket wrench and a screwdriver. We start by unscrewing the fixing bolts of the plastic cover, then we disconnect both terminals by unscrewing the two nuts, starting with the negative one. Once this is done, we unscrew the long front bolt, which holds the fixing bracket firmly. At this point we can extract the old battery and mount the spare one following the reverse procedure. Let's remember to reconnect the positive pole first and only then the negative.

Next, unclip the brackets securing the battery on both sides, then unscrew the bolts on the sides of the battery base to remove the brackets holding it in place.
