TOWING AND ROAD SERVICE PROCEDURES FOR 2002 BMW MINI COOPER

Download free Towing and Road Service Procedures for the 2002 BMW Mini Cooper and Mini Cooper S.pdf Refer to all information and precautions found in the General Information section of the AAA/CAA Towing and Service Manual. Always use the latest available edition of the manual to assure the most up-to-date-information. The following procedures and precautions are specific to the Mini Cooper and Mini Cooper S. The manufacturer has not approved a procedure for sling equipment. Wheel-lift equipment may be used from the rear only. Check the clearance between the wheellift stinger and the exhaust system as the vehicle is raised. A self-loading dolly must be placed under the front wheels due to low ground clearance at the front valance (Figure 1) when the rear wheels are raised. If the vehicle cannot be towed from the rear, car carrier equipment must be used! Any attempt to place a wheel-lift under the front wheels will damage the front valance.

When towing from the rear with a wheel-lift, the steering wheel must be secured using only an approved clamping device (Figure 2.) Use of a rope or other device that is placed around the door edge may cause damage to the door or window closing mechanism. When loading the vehicle onto a car carrier, additional ramping may be needed due to low ground clearance. The only approved locations for attaching the winch wire rope are the tow sockets located in the front and rear bumper fascia on the passengers side (Figures 3 and 4).
