I noticed several posts with confusion over the fuel tank capacity. Does the the 13.2 gal include the 2.1 reserve or not? I bought mine from a private party, it came with a empty tank and the reserve light on. I put 13.4 gals in it. 4 tanks later, I foolish let it get very low and put 14.4 gals in. So my guess is the 13.2 gal capacity does NOT include the 2.1 gal reserve. Does anyone suggest a good manual as the owners manual with the car in very inadequate for any service concerns?

 

I went to a local BMW dealership and bought a manual for (if I remember correctly) just under $9.00. It's pretty explanatory on most of the general car stuff. You could also buy a MINI manual on E-Bay.
