Can anyone explain:

a) Condition Based Servicing intervals for my R56 (gen2) MINI?
and
b) what exactly the TLC package covers?

So much conflicting information online about what items are condition-based and what items are time-based. I’m going to approach my local dealer to confirm the service history of my MINI but would rather be more informed than I am now! Just got doubts about mine being complete…

Engine oil & filter – CBS (approx. 20k miles about right?)
Air filter - ???
Brake fluid – very certain this is every 2 years.
Micro filter (is that the cabin filter?) - ???
Spark plugs – 60k miles for my N18 Cooper S?
Items I’ve missed and their frequency?

(yes, I’ll be changing the engine oil/filter more frequently than the CBS suggests – 20k is far too many miles between changes IMO)


And the TLC package? Seems to be listed as 5 years / 50k miles – is that ANY number of services or is there a limit to how many you get?


Sorry I find this all bloody confusing. Thanks for any help/clarification.
