MINI Electric Car Maintenance Schedule
While this is not the complete MINI electric car maintenance schedule, these MINI EV routine maintenance tasks should not be missed if you want your vehicle to run smoothly in Hamilton Township:
- Battery Checks – An easy way to ensure your vehicle is ready for the roads of Mount Laurel is to perform regular battery inspections. These inspections are even more important if your vehicle features a lithium-ion battery pack. For most EV drivers, the battery will last for 100,000 miles or more. However, if there is an issue with the battery, you can catch it early.
- Brake Fluid Replacement – How often should brake fluid be replaced in an electric vehicle? This task is recommended every 3-5 years.
- Coolant System Maintenance – If your EV contains a special thermal management or cooling system to improve battery performance, it will also require maintenance from time to time. Intervals fluctuate, so be sure to check your owner’s manual to see when this service is needed.
- Tire Rotation – Proper tire maintenance is a must no matter what kind of vehicle you drive. It’s especially important for electric vehicles because the added weight of the battery leads to quicker tire wear. A tire rotation should occur every 5,000 to 10,000 miles.
- Wheel Alignment – Don’t forget about wheel alignment. This task should happen every 15,000 miles to boost mile range and reduce tire tread wear.
- Air Filter Replacement – Your air filter helps to minimize the amount of pollen, road dust, and dirt that enter the cabin. To keep these contaminants out, replace the filter every 2-3 years. Some specialty filters can go as long as 5 years before needing replacement.
