MINI and BMW do not publish repair manuals. The dealers use electronic manuals on the computer. Owners and independent shops can access them online through a subscription: https://www.minitis.com/

Bentley hasn't published a manual for Countryman/Paceman, but their manual for the R56 covers your N18 engine, and some of the interior and electrical parts are similar.

rkw, thanks for the info. I have a JCW Paceman which I believe is a N14 engine, is that correct?

R56 JCW started with N14 and transitioned to N18, but Countryman/Paceman JCW came late and have only used N18. In any case, the Bentley manual covers both N14 and N18.

Repair manual

I have used Bently manuals for years on M3, r53 and R 56 and found it very helpful. Between that, realoem.com and you tube, I have done a lot of work and repairs with few problems.
