I've got my parts coming to repair the front cv axle on my 2015 F56 Mini Cooper S automatic. I searched for a video but could only find videos for earlier years.

Does anyone have a good diy video for me to follow along?

 

I don't have a link at hand, but you might try searching for Mini One service videos published on YouTube by Haynes.

The particular vids that seem helpful for my 2017 F56 Cooper S auto usually cover the 2014-2018 Mini One (which appears to correspond to the 2014-? base Cooper in the US). It's not a perfect match (the Cooper S has a literally bigger engine, so, for example, there are accessibility variations for things like belt replacement). But they're close enough that when you want a visual on a certain task, they can come in pretty handy.

 

 

Thank you so much. You rock!!

 

UPDATE: The driver side axle was STUCK!! Just in case anyone else has the same issue. We put a strap around the hub about 3 times. Pulled with the power of a person, literally created a loop, put it around my shoulders & pulled on it with all my might. At the same time, another person was under the car with a chisel & hammer. It took a minute, but it popped right out.

There was a video, but I forgot to save it. If I come across it again, I’ll post it. 🍑🍑

 

Why drain the fluid? They didn’t show any being replaced?
