Does anyone know if the procedure for resetting the service indicator is the same on a mini cooper with navigation?

 

forgot to mention the 2 t-20 scews at the top of the center section by the hazard/interior light buttons on that dash thing. Video is coming but have to clean my car and get a sunny day to shoot it.

If you remove /dash.mov from the url to view the /seatfix directory you get pictures on removing/replacing seat height adjuster as a bonus.

I have a 2003 mini and trying to find how to replace master cylinder. All videos/info I find is for slave cylinder. Help please.

 

Removal;

Use a syringe to remove brake fluid.
Detach electrical connections.
Remove the brake fluid reservoir screw underneith the reservoir.
Lift the reservoir straight up and off of master cylinder.
Remove brake lines.
Remove the DSC electrical connection underneith the master cylinder if you have DSC.
Remove master cylinder mounting nuts.
Have a container or large rag to catch excess fluid ready.
Pull master cylinder out of brake booster.

Re-installation;

Install new o-rings.
Make sure the master cylinder pressure rod lines up with brake booster pressure rod.
Reinstallation is reverse of removal from this point.

Tightening torques;

Brake fluid reservoir to master cylinder - 31 in-lb
Brake lines to master cylinder - 10 ft-lb
Brake master cylinder to booster - 2 ft-lb

This is a great time for you to upgrade to a higher boiling point brake fluid like ATE Super Blue. I like this one because it's easy to tell when all the old fluid is out due to the change in color.

Obviously you need to bleed all four brakes at the end. Start with the right rear then left rear then right front and end at left front.
