2018 Mini Cooper Clubman Scheduled Maintenance

When it comes to your Mini Cooper Clubman, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With the right maintenance at the right time, your Cooper Clubman could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your Cooper Clubman, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2018 Mini Cooper Clubman!

Mini knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Cooper Clubman's life, keep you safer on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2018 Mini Cooper Clubman problems later.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2018 Mini Cooper Clubman and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Cooper Clubman's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 2018 Mini Cooper Clubman be ready for a new battery? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Mini Cooper Clubman battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Mini Cooper Clubman could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2018 Mini Cooper Clubman engine. See Mini's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2018 Cooper Clubman in the chart at the top of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 2018 Mini Cooper Clubman.

Periodic service to the steering system in your Mini Cooper Clubman can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones. Trust our technicians to inspect system components and if needed, provide Mini Cooper Clubman steering and suspension services including wheel alignment, strut replacement, power steering fluid changes, ball joint lubrication, and wheel bearing replacement. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Mini Cooper Clubman's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you fall behind on routine Mini Cooper Clubman maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you could be feeling the heat on the road – literally! A malfunctioning A/C system or overheating engine can wreak havoc on your car. Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Mini Cooper Clubman cooling, heating, and climate control system. Is it time to replace the radiator in your Mini Cooper Clubman? We can take care of that. Got a funny smell coming from your A/C? We’re on it.
