Where is the Brake Fluid Reservoir in the Mini One?

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

This video shows where the brake fluid reservoir is located in the Mini One, useful if you need to top it up. As shown, the reservoir is located at the rear of the engine bay, directly beneath the panel in front of the windscreen, on the passenger side. It is easily identifiable by the presence of a yellow cap. When topping up, first ensure the vehicle is off and avoid any potential spills, as this is a highly corrosive substance.

Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
