MINI F57 Cooper D Servicing Costs – Open-Top Efficiency With 3-Cylinder Diesel Power
The MINI F57 Cooper D pairs top-down fun with frugal motoring. Its 1.5-litre 3-cylinder diesel engine is part of BMW’s modular engine family, offering great fuel economy and low emissions — but like all diesels, it comes with specific servicing needs.
At The MINI (&BMW) Specialist in Great Bridge, we offer fixed-price servicing tailored to the F57 Cooper D. Every service includes BMW LL-04 100% synthetic 5w30 oil, OE-quality filters, and a full diesel system inspection to ensure clean running and long-term reliability.
Why Book Your Cooper D With Us?
Diesel Sensor Fault Checks
We check for fuel pressure sensor leaks — a known issue that can cause diesel to wick down the engine wiring loom. Watch explanation
Backpressure Sensor Pipe
Carbon build-up in the sensor pipe for the DPF system is very common. We check and clean this at service time. Watch video
Swirl Flap Cleaning
We inspect and clean the intake swirl flaps, which often clog with soot and reduce airflow and performance.
Convertible-Specific Checks
We also inspect the roof drains, seals, and check operation of the roof mechanism during every Major Inspection.
