Save money and have fun by working on your own MINI Cooper!

You need to put the car in FES mode or remove the radiator to complete a lot of MINI Cooper or Cooper S repairs, such as servicing the supercharger, fixing oil leaks, changing the clutch, repairing the alternator, etc.
This involves removal of plastic bumper cover, aluminum structural bumper, lower crash tubes, lower skid plate, and disconnection of fog light, turn signal, front marker and side marker lights.
