To change the Transmission Fluid on a Mini Cooper, start by lifting the car and securely supporting it. Drain the old fluid by removing the drain plug, allowing it to fully empty, then replace the plug. Next, remove the fill plug and use a pump to add the new transmission fluid until it starts to overflow slightly from the fill hole. Finally, replace the fill plug and lower the car, ensuring to check the fluid level after a test drive.

To change the clutch on a 2007 Mini Cooper, first, disconnect the battery and remove the front subframe to access the transmission. Next, drain the transmission fluid, detach the driveshafts, and unbolt the transmission from the engine. Remove the old clutch and pressure plate, install the new clutch kit, and reassemble the components in reverse order. Finally, refill the transmission with fluid and reconnect the battery.
For a 2005 Mini Cooper, the recommended transmission fluid is typically BMW MTF-LT-2 or equivalent, which is a synthetic manual transmission fluid. If it's an automatic transmission, use the specific ATF recommended by BMW, often labeled as Dexron III or equivalent. Always consult the owner’s manual or a professional for the most accurate specifications for your vehicle.
