Oil changes with us are easy.  With Patrick Direct we offers online appointment scheduling and MINI service loaners while your car is being serviced. It’s a great way to get to drive a different model MINI and gives you a chance to peruse the showroom. If you desire and have the time, you could even wait as oil changes do not take long.

The engine oil consumption is dependent on your driving style and driving conditions. Therefore, regularly check the engine oil level after refueling by taking a detailed measurement. The engine oil consumption can increase in the following situations, for example:

  • Sporty driving style
  • Break-in of the engine
  • Idling of the engine
  • With use of engine oil types that are classified as not suitable
  • Different Check Control messages appear, depending on the engine oil level

So, how often should you change the oil in your MINI Cooper?

It’s a good idea to get your MINI’s oil changed every 4,000 to 6,000 miles. This ensures that your oil is always working efficiently and keeps your vehicle healthy and safer to drive.
