Q How often does a MINI Car need an oil change?

This depends partly on how the vehicle is driven and, for this reason, your new MINI comes with a dashboard display telling you the remaining miles or time before the next service is due. This will also be adjusted by the car’s built-in Condition Based Service (CBS) system. Typically intervals can be every ten to fifteen thousand miles or annually whichever comes soonest, although there is no harm in changing your oil more frequently than this.
