What are the MINI Cooper Service Intervals?

Your MINI Cooper maintenance schedule is designed to ensure that your vehicle is always running safely at peak performance levels on Providence, RI roads and beyond. Regular MINI Cooper maintenance will extend the life of your vehicle, help to reduce the likelihood of costly repairs, and allow you to enjoy maximum fuel efficiency. To help you stay on top of your routine maintenance, MINI has developed an advanced service reminder system which will alert you to schedule MINI Cooper service when the time comes. This system is based on a variety of factors, and maintenance intervals differ on each vehicle. The frequency of service also depends on the climate conditions, the type of terrain you frequent, and your personal driving habits.

MINI Cooper Maintenance System

As mentioned above, MINI has developed a state-of-the-art MINI Maintenance System on all newer MINI vehicles. This system can help you stay on top of your MINI Cooper service schedule by giving you reminders as to when you should schedule your next service appointment.

If there’s no MINI Cooper service required, an “OK” symbol will appear. If the deadline for scheduled maintenance is coming up, there will be an outlined triangle. If the service deadline has passed, you’ll see a triangle with another triangle within it.
