WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2008 MINI Cooper, 2007 MINI Cooper, 2006 MINI Cooper, 2005 MINI Cooper, and 2004 MINI Cooper. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Checking Tire Inflation Pressure:
- Check tire inflation pressure according to information plate on B-pillar.
- Inflation pressure in spare wheel must be 0.5 bar higher than the maximum specified value on the information plate.
- Initialize Run Flat Indicator. Refer to 36 11 000 INITIALIZING TIRE DEFECT INDICATOR (RPA) .
- Checking Tire Condition:
- Check tread depth of all tires with tire tread gauge.
- Check tire tread surfaces and side walls for incisions and foreign particles such as nails or screws.
- Check tire tread pattern for localized flattening and wear on one side; if necessary, carry out wheel/chassis alignment after consulting with customer and issue a separate invoice for this work.
NOTE:
- For reasons of driving safety, only use tires of the same type and tread pattern on a single vehicle.
- Inform customer of any incorrect or worn tires.
