- In this video, I show you step by step how to remove the engine in a 2014-2024 Mini Cooper without a lift! This particular model happens to be a 2019 Cooper S 4 Door Hardtop, but it should be the same for every model. Pay close attention as I explain how to avoid discharging the air conditioning as well.

Just bought a 2019 (has a salvage title due to a busted oil pan and seized engine) for my daughter. She's wanting to help tear it down and put it back together. We've watched this and your install video and will for sure refer back when we do the work. Just wanted to say, fantastic videos!!! Actually helpful without being full of useless info and nonsense. I appreciate the time it took you to video and explain your steps.
I know that guy with pink hair! Really cool that you have the first video detailing how to remove this engine, let alone at home without a hoist. Hopefully this finds its audience, even if it's delayed by a few years and these cars get older.
This video is outstanding. I never thought a video this complicated and well documented could be done in 49min. Wow. When people say I watched it on RUclips. There are different levels of that statement. Your video is worthy of showing new MINI techs in their training course. Subscribed for sure. I just bought a 2019 Mini and love doing my own work so just getting a lay of the land for this new addition. Awesome. Thanks!
Thank you! I'm glad you liked the video
Great video. Was thinking of doing this to bypass an extravagant shop bill, but wasn't sure. Your video makes it look alot more doable than I thought. Thanks!
Props to you for tackling this project! Here for the results!
Watch the next video for the results :)
Great information thanks for sharing.
my 2017 clubman has about 230k miles on it and is doing that weird turbo wastegate/coolant temp sensor code - I figure it'll be easier to work on with the engine removed. Thanks for your video. Perhaps I'll tackle a bunch of other stuff while the engine is out :D
The pipe on the battery is for the vent plug - the pipe is attached to allow the battery to vent thus prevent it possibly exploding yet also carries away the noxious fumes... Usually only see them if the battery is inside the cabin like on the old X5 e53 - I guess the designers wanted to be absolutely sure no fumes could possibly get into the cabin from the engine bay... Perhaps another example of famous German over engineering... Amazing video thanks for this
Awesome! Thank you for the info!
@@NickSabella you have balls of steel for that engine swap - big respect from the UK for that!!!!
Is the service manual available anywhere?
hi there you think if i switch engine and transmission together from f 56 to f56 same car it will work or i have to reprogram tranny ecu, both has same engine
I think it'll probably work but I can't say for sure
Because I see that you switch transmission
hi new to your channel and f56 owner. Can you please share where i can download the pdf entitled Mini_Cooper_f55.pdf please?
Hi Nick, your video is amazing ! Which service book you used to remove and reinstall the engine from the mini , including pictures. What is the best place to download?
Hi I used the official mini service manual. Unfortunately, it is not available to the public 😞
Must have been like hell! 👍🏼 👏 congratulation’s
It wasn't great. Installation video dropping soon!
@@NickSabella I can’t wait to get my b48 out and see what is going on.
@@NickSabellahi new to your channel and f56 owner. Can you please share where i can download the pdf entitled Mini_Cooper_f55.pdf please?
This vid made me happy af now I can take my motor out of my 16 x1
I wonder possible grab newer clubman JCW engine for that GP horsepower lol
11/10
Im thinking of swapping a 2nd Gen Cooper with a K series Honda engine
Hey I know that mini! ❤️✨
did you blow a dealer to get Manual?
Nick, sometimes if you didn't have bad luck you wouldn't have any luck at all LMAO!
Did the knock sound like regular old rod knock? could you have ran heavy oil and tranny fluid for 1k mi? idk
Great video, mini coop mechs don't even need a manual if you follow this!!!
PS don't care about jack stands, always sticking the wheels under the frame
Thanks for watching and I'm glad you liked it! The knock did sound exactly like rod knock but pretty quiet and went away when you revved it. My guess is that none of the bearings spun but that they all wore down. Maybe the oil pump went bad or something got in the pickup tube. I haven't looked at any of that yet.
B48/b46 engine? What’s gonna happen to the old engine? Gonna do a tear down to see what happened to it?
Yes its a B46. The old engine is still sitting on the engine stand in my garage. I'm planning on doing a teardown video once I get the rest of my cars all fixed. It might be a little while unfortunately.
