What is the MINI Maintenance Schedule?

There are lots of great reasons for San Francisco and Oakland drivers to get behind the wheel of a new MINI when it’s time to upgrade their driving experience in the Bay Area. Chief among them is the MINI Maintenance Program! One of the most comprehensive scheduled maintenance programs in its class, the MINI Maintenance Program comes standard on every new MINI vehicle. What’s included in the MINI Maintenance Program, and how does the MINI maintenance schedule break down into regular intervals? East Bay MINI Authorized Service Center provides the details you need, below.

• Engine oil services and oil level checks

Breaking Down the MINI Cooper Maintenance Schedule

Pleasanton drivers who want to enjoy consistently optimal performance from their MINI vehicle should adhere to the MINI maintenance schedule closely. Here is how it breaks down at every 3,000, 6,000, and 9,000-interval:

Every 3 months or 3,000 miles, the following MINI components should be checked and/or changed:
