It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. Mini Cooper transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding or jumping during acceleration, the car shaking at any speed, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood.

2016 Mini Cooper Questions & Answers

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Mini? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Mini tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my Cooper's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Mini Cooper’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Mini. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can Mini Cooper transmission fluid leak? Yes, your Mini Cooper can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Cooper ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
  • Where can I get my  Mini Cooper transmission fixed? If you have a problem with your transmission system, don’t hesitate to visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care. Our expert technicians can diagnose and repair Cooper transmission leaks and other issues. Schedule an appointment today!
