This link below may be of interest for the R53 MINI Cooper S supercharger oil change.

 

2002-2006 MINI Cooper S Supercharger Oil Service

Use the following procedure to check and top up Supercharger oil.

Owing to the extreme heat and harsh operating conditions, it is a good idea to check the supercharger oil level on a regular basis. MINI does not specifically recommend a supercharger oil service and no oil is available through MINI parts.

The supercharger on the MINI is manufactured by Eaton. General Motors uses a similar Eaton supercharger and the GM supercharger oil (GM Part number 12345982) can be substituted.

The supercharger has two oil reservoirs; one on the front of the supercharger below the drive pulley and one on the rear behind the water pump. Oil service for each is covered separately.

The reservoir fill plugs are difficult to access, and some disassembly is required to access the rear plug. A small diameter hose may help to facilitate topping off.
