Bentley 2002-04 Mini Cooper, Mini Cooper S (1st gen) service manual

Category: Collectibles
Price: $0
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits (you may select multiples): R53
Location (Region): Midwestern
Item Condition: Used

Howdy folks,

About to jump into a front end rebuild on a r53...all of a sudden a service manual seems like a handy thing to have. Anybody got one lying around they're willing to part with? Doesn't have to be perfect, just readable...



Cheers!

Make sure you get the updated one, that pic above looks like the older book for less years and article.

Thanks ECS, looks like you've got the best deal I'm gonna find...

Considering the task at hand, any other suggestions for must haves before I get started?

This is for this project: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...taled-r53.html

I have a good pile of tools, could probably use a new torx bit set. I also have the ELM327 OBDII interface with dash commander. No where near as fancy as the scanner your suggest, but hoping it tells me what I need to know.

Figured you hear from folks doing this sort of thing all the time, anything to make the job easier I guess...

Thanks!

If you are still looking, I have one that I purchased for my long gone 2006 S. Probably purchased in 2009. Let me know.
