Hey guys I just bought an 02 cooper s and want to completely change all the fluids...only one problem...my manual got something spilled on it and all the pages relevant to routine maintenance got stuck together and are unreadable. Can someone list the lubricant quantities for the engine, manual trans, coolant, and lsd? Also what type of oil for the manual trans? Is the LSD inside the transmission? I only have rear wheel drive cars and this is my first fwd. Thanks.

 

A boat-load of useful information here.
And welcome to NAM.

Wow thanks a lot for that great reference!

 

Geez, that may be the best comprehensive link I've seen in 4 yrs...It'll never get stickied, but it should....

 

You can also check www.motoringfile.com for more info and copies of the owners manual.

 

Here's a link for the transmisson change with types and quantities. And here's a link for an oil change with types and quantites. The coolant capacity according to Haynes is approximately 6.0 liters.(.946 quarts per liter).
