I bought a MANN filter for \\~$20 on Amazon and swapped it myself in under 30 minutes with a YouTube video.
Reviews of spare parts for MINI
If you check out the tests on Project Farm on YouTube, Bosch Icon wipers came out with the best ratings.
I run continental dws6 on my wife's mini.
Yes. they are amazing! had them on my mini countryman for 4 1/2 years. also are pretty good in warm weather too (its a higher performance all-season)
My mini cooper (FWD like your Prius) is a beast in the snow with winter tires. WINTER tires, not just all seasons.
I replaced the clutch with an OEM Valeo, converted it to a single mass flywheel with a complete kit, serviced the supercharger, installed a new radiator support (the original was damaged in one corner), a new Mishimoto radiator with a silicone hose kit, a new thermostat, water pump, new OEM BMW oil pan, gasket and bolts, new engine mounts, a new Racing Dynamics intercooler, a new OEM water pump with its filter, a new aluminum Canton Racing expansion tank, a new 15% supercharger pulley and a new Craven belt, new NGK spark plugs, a new Nissen A/C condenser, semi slicks racing tires, new Rotors and Pads Carbon ceramic on the 4 wheels, and inside I replaced the cloth seats with heated English Lounge Leather seats that I got and restored with a friend from a crashed 2005 S.
I use Brembo Ceramic brake pads on my Mini Cooper S and Brembo rotors. Less dust, no noise.
They were fine for my mini cooper in Southern California. I’d get the warranty tho!
It rained today and I noticed the blades only make contact with 1/2 the windshield. They are Rain-X Latitude so you can avoid them. The windshield just has too much curve for the blade.
I don’t drive my Mini much, sub 100 miles a year. I had Nankangs but they started to split after 18 months. Not sure if lack of movement didn’t help but it was annoying.
