Mini Cooper Brake Rotor Factory Original Application Guide

Red MINI CooperAny time the Brake Wear Indicator light comes on in the dash, it's time to replace brake pads and rotors.  If the stock rotors worked well for you, here is the application guide to help identify the correct original rotors for your MINI.

MINI recommends that you replace the rotors with each pad change.  A lot of people are used to 'turning' the rotors and use them for at least another set of pads, however 'turning' the rotors on an already worn set results in a significant reduction of 'mass' - which equates to heat dissipation capacity.  This means the 'turned' rotors don't have the same capacity to dissipate heat as when they were new.  The net result is the 'turned' rotors will overheat sooner, and the higher temperatures means they will be prone to warping (which produces a pulsing when braking and reduces braking efficiency).  Bottom line - you should replace the rotors when installing new pads. 

We strongly recommend against installing new pads without servicing the rotors.

MINI recommends Brake Fluid replacement every 2 years to maintain the optimum performance of the ABS brake system. For High Performance Brake Fluids, see the following:

NOTE: 

* - MINI changed the lug bolt size from M12x1.5 to M14x1.25 starting in 07/2006 (July 2006).  The bolt holes for the rotor were made slightly larger beginning this date to accommodate the larger bolts.  The early rotors cannot be used on later production dates, but the later production date rotor can be used on the earlier years.  (Within the 1st Generation model series).
