MINI R57 Cooper SD FAQs
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What engine is in the R57 Cooper SD? | All SD versions use the 2.0-litre BMW N47 diesel — known for great torque and motorway economy but requires timely servicing to prevent timing chain and emissions issues. |
| How often should I get it serviced? | Every 10,000–12,000 miles or annually — with fresh oil and filters to protect the DPF, turbo, and timing components. |
| What are the typical faults? | Chain noise on cold starts, blocked DPFs, faulty EGR valves, turbo control actuator faults, and swirl flap degradation are all common. We check them all during your service. |
| Do you reset the service history? | Yes — the onboard reminder is reset and your digital history is updated where supported. |
| Can you fix a DPF warning light? | Yes — we perform backpressure checks, inspect sensor pipes, and run a forced regen if needed. We also offer permanent fixes if the issue keeps returning. |
