I believe it depends on the car model, not the country. For instance, Mini recommends spark plugs to be changed every second oil service for Mini Cooper S and at every oil service for the JCW.
for the lights in the wheel well, if is hard to remove the cover, any two legged hand tool used in reverse should do the trick. Spread the handles and stick them in the cross. Turn left.
I'm so glad your channel popped up in the reccomendations! I got myself (well - technically it's for my fiance, but let's face it - I'll probably rip around in it more often) a 2012 Mini Cooper S R56. It's a project car and I'm about to do a service to it! I would struggle with the sparkplugs without wathing your video! P.S. What a BEAUTIFUL surrondings you live in. I'm planning to move to Austria from central/eastern europe - any recommendations on to which part of Austria should I consider the most?
Thank you for your kind words! Congrats on the Mini and don't be afraid to involve your fiance in the service, she might just enjoy it 😃 I'll soon do a video on how to do an oil change as well since that is coming up for me, maybe that will be helpful as well. As for living in Austria, I would recommend any place near nature! Personally I am located in the region Tyrol, but Salzburg and Carinthia are also stunning!
Ich fahr nen 2010er JCW und was ich nur empfehlen kann wenn man häufiger was an seinem Auto macht, oder man mehrerer Reifensätze hat, ist ne Stehbolzen Conversion. Das sind so Doppelgewindebolzen, die man einfach mit bisschen Loctite in die originalen Gewinde dreht und dann kann man Radmuttern verwenden. Kostet insgesamt ca 80€ 😊👍🏻
Gosh, its the cleanest engine bay i saw! Never saw it like that
Look at those beautiful mountain in the background. Idk where they are at but it is amazing!
These are the Austrian alps :)
@@KiaraShifts Stunning!
That’s a nice Spark plug tool.
It is! I always list tools and products in the description for your convenience 😊
Nice Mini! I like the blue accents with the black!
Thank you so much! It's all in the details for me :)
In the UK, the interval for the air filter and spark plugs is 4 years.

@@KiaraShiftsMy Mini is a Cooper S, too. I only said 4 years because you said 24 months, although that depends on mileage.
So nice video!👍🏻
I'm glad you like it 😊

Great Job!
Thank you! Cheers!
I do my plugs one at a time, so I don't mix up the coil packs.

Kenne ich! Macht sicherlich Sinn, persönlich mag ich nur das Aussehen davon nicht so 🤔
Brake bleeding video would be great
Thanks for the suggestion! I've only recently changed my brake fluid, but once necessary, I will make sure to make a video of it!
Thank you, can you tell us what's the wheel and tire sizes are ?
Sure! It's Dotz Rapier 17inch with Federal 595-RS-R 215/40ZR17 :)
You have to oil the O ring of the filter housing, so the next time it will be easy to change…
You're quite right! Forgot to mention this!
ok what about the new sparkplug gap
Most spark plugs are pregapped! As is true for the ones I use.
yes but how did you know without checking them that the gap had not closed or opened before fitting them
They are delivered in safe packaging that ensures the gap stays the same :)
