Maintenance Project on '06 MCS

Just ordered a bunch of parts and tools off of Pelican Parts. Excited to change the transmission fluid to Redline, perform oil/filter service and change out the spark plugs. Also, going to fix a squeaky sunroof.

Will post my status outcome as the projects unfold.

How many beers are required?

G8R,

I am in the DC metro area as well. we have 2 MINIS and there is very little maintenance I have not done on the cars. I have the belt tool, Bav Tech software and cable (as well as a couple other scan tools to clear MINI codes and reset service interval...even clear airbag codes)...I have the Bentley manual....etc. LMK if you need any help.

Thanks for the helping hand offer. I might take you up on it if I get too deep into it.

I recently got the Bentley manual as well. Talk about some bedtime reading!
