How Does Mini Cooper Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Mini Cooper's suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. When your car has an alignment service, the individual angles of your tires are adjusted so that they come into contact with the road in just the right way — the way Mini intended them to. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Mini specifies for your vehicle, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. As a result, you get several benefits: your car handles better, the lifespan of your tires increases, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2017 Mini Cooper, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Mini recommendations. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Mini Cooper

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Mini Cooper alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 2017 Mini Cooper: pulling to the left or right, excessive wear on only one tire, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or tires that squeal frequently. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Cooper dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.
