How to top up the engine oil in the Mini Cooper S?

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

In this tutorial, we can see how to top up the engine oil in the Mini Cooper S, a very simple and quick operation to be carried out periodically according to the needs. First of all, we wait for the engine to be completely cold, then we open the hood, locate the dipstick, extract it and clean it with an absorbent cloth. We then reinsert the dipstick into its housing, extract it again and check the oil level. If it is low, we add the necessary amount to reach the point located halfway between the two control indicators.
