BMW Longlife-14 FE+
For Gasoline engines

If you own the Cooper S model with the Turbocharged engine, we STRONGLY recommend you change the motor oil more frequently than the factory recommendation. Anecdotal evidence suggests Turbo's with more frequent oil changes have fewer issues. We suggest 5000 mile oil change interval or less. Make sure you use FULL SYNTHETIC motor oil with API SL or superior oil rating.

0W-20 Full Synthetic Oils

Because 0W-20 flows so well at cold temperatures, it lubricates parts faster during cold starts. Most engine wear occurs during the first couple of minutes after a cold start and fast flowing oil protects sooner; it also allows the engine to crank faster so it can start more quickly. These are real benefits on a cold Canadian winter morning. 

0W-20 oil provides the best lubrication under all temperature conditions, reduces engine combustion chamber deposits, reduces vehicle emissions and improves fuel economy.

Oil Capacity is 4.75 Quarts (4.5 liters) for the following models with the 1.5 liter 3 cylinder engine:

• 2014-2022 F56 MINI Cooper Hardtop
• 2015-2022 F55 MINI Cooper Hardtop 4-Door
• 2016-2022 F57 MINI Cooper Convertible
• 2016-2022 F54 MINI Cooper Clubman
• 2017-2022 F60 MINI Cooper Countryman

Oil Capacity is 5.54 Quarts (5.25 liters) for the following models with the 2.0 liter 4 cylinder engine:

• 2014-2022 F56 MINI Cooper S Hardtop S
• 2015-2022 F55 MINI Cooper S Hardtop 4-Door
• 2016-2022 F57 MINI Cooper S Convertible

FACTORY APPROVED OILS

Factory oil recommendations may change over time.  Although we do our best to provide the most up-to-date information, always check with the factory for the current recommendations.

For Gen 3 (F56/F55/F57/F54/F60):

• 2014-2017models, factory recommends FULL SYNTHETIC SAE 0W-20 (recommended), 0W-30, SAE 5W-20, SAE 5W-30, SAE0W-40 or 5W-40. Approved oil types include BMW Longlife-01 and BMW Longlife-01 FE, API SL or superior grade specification.

TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS for Gen3 (F54/55/56/57/60) models:

• Oil Filter Housing 25Nm or 18.4 ft-lbs
• Filter Housing Oil Drain Plug 5NM or 3.7 ft-lbs or 44.5 INCH-lbs
• Oil Pan Drain Plug 20Nm or 14.8 ft-lbs

Start the engine and check for oil pressure. Don't forget to check for leaks too!

For additional protection, take a look at our Magnetic Oil Drain Plug for Gen3 models.

It helps if you 'loosen' the oil filter canister while you drain the oil to allow the oil to drain out of the filter. You will spill less oil this way. (Gen3 oil filter housing has a drain plug for draining oil from the filter)

Before you press the filter into the canister cover, press it into the filter base 'all the way' and remove to prep the filter for proper seating. Now you can press filter into the canister cover and install.

Remember to use the new O-ring on the canister cover - LIBERALLY coat the new o-ring with clean oil so it doesn't bind. Start the canister cover by hand to avoid cross-threading.

Don't pollute. Conserve resources. Return used oil to collection centers.
