If it is a CVT transmission then yes you can use cvt gearbox oil in a mini cooper.
You probably have a leaking oil seal or cylinder head gasket.
Use exactly the weight that Mini recommends. http://www.ehow.com/list_7739452_list-mini-cooper-approved-oil.html

A 2007 Mini Cooper S uses a Purolator L15465 oil filter. It is designed to trap small particles in the oil before it can damage the engine.

every 5000ks
The manufacturer recommends that you use 10W-30 motor oil in your 2006 Mini Cooper. Use in extreme climates may call for a heavier oil, like 10 W40.
Change the oil filter every time you change the oil.
