How Often to Change 2018 Mini Cooper Clubman Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2018 Mini Cooper Clubman? Look no further than Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. Oil and lube services are also our specialties. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Mini recommends changing your 2018 Cooper Clubman’s oil at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your Cooper Clubman may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Mini recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, enjoy off-roading, or drive at low speeds for long distances. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Mini Cooper Clubman. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 2018 Mini Cooper Clubman

  • What can low oil do to my Mini Cooper Clubman engine? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, these parts can grind together, overheat, and eventually lead to Mini Cooper Clubman engine failure. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Mini oil on my own? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Mini Cooper Clubman exhaust smoke grayish or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, damaged piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Mini Cooper Clubman? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Mini Cooper Clubman oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • Why is my Mini Cooper Clubman oil light illuminated? Your Mini Cooper Clubman oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • Does my Cooper Clubman's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? It's recommended that you replace your Mini Cooper Clubman oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
