there probably is. just search for what you'd like to replace. it'll probably break eventually.

You are smart to stay ahead of any potential problems. As you approach 30,000 miles here is what you should consider in addition to regular oil and filter changes:
Cabin Air Filter change
Check for leaks - transmission, power steering, exhaust system, and fuel system
Check fluid levels - brake system and fluid level, clean brake contact points, inspect disc surfaces and pad life
Check for play and wear in control arm bushings, steering tie rods, steering linkage, and axle joints
Check tire wear
Check cooling system
Electrical: Check MINI diagnostic computer for stored faults, all lights, signals, and reset computer
Of course, you don't have to wait until 30,000 miles to do these! Call us if we can be of help.
