Can anyone tell me if Mini Tempe is giving us discounted prices on service? I'm headed in this Friday for an Inspection 1 service and would like to save a little $$ if possible.

Thanks.

I believe it is only on parts and accessories, not any actual labor or service, but I'm not 100% positive. Mentioning your a member will usually get you some discount. But I'd give them a call and they can tell you for sure.
800-713-1972

They do run occasional service deals and manager specials too... also 15% discount for military...

Ok, the Inspection 1 and Inspection 2 services both say to change the automatic transmission fluid; but it references the CVT. I don't have the CVT auto-trans....I have the auto-trans that came after that.

On my Inspection 1, the transmission fluid change was not done. I was advised that its not part of the service at Mini Tempe. My payment invoice also indicates that the automatic transmission fluid change was not completed; the invoice has line items for all parts which lists the engine oil and filter but no mention of tranmssion service related items.

Does anyone know when they stopped doing the transmission fluid changes as part of the Inspections?

I would call Mini USA and ask them. Just to get a offical answer.
