Video tutorial

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.
