Oil Change Kit

Hi,
Is there a complete kit you can buy from the dealers for an oil change, including filter,new drain plug etc or are they all separate parts you have to get?

Seperate parts normally, but speak to Chris at Woodmans, I am sure he did a service kit for people

The only problem I have is knowing which one to drive?

I did look at minimania as they had the plug but only on the U.S. site, not on UK site, even checked the part number for it.

Service kit -no problem ,I am adding a huge amount of items and this will take time , including service kits for various tasks , with any special tools required included ,such as filter socket .
Year changes present a problem as do model differences so there are quite a few part numbers for the same items.
It will take time ,and once finished for any defect on the MINI the repair part will be available,also as more people use us prices can be dropped ,
I am also looking further ahead ,for rebuilt or repaired control units,drive shafts,and replacement panels etc and even wire loom repair kits ,so the whole loom need not be replaced if only a connector is damaged .
Every weak point on the car I am looking at providing an improved part for, to keep the car trouble free, but it is a lengthy process
(,for example stainless steel exhaust mounting brackets,improved heater matrix ) these type of jobs you only want to do once!!!
OEM parts have for a long time been considered the replacement parts to use ,but when they are failing with alarming regularity, a bit more selectivity is required
