    That's a very hard question to answer because it depends on how you drive and take care of your MINI.

    Have you replaced the fluid?

    Doing a flush and refill on a regular basis will help the CVT to last longer. While MINI says it is a lifetime fill, it's not.

    Welcome, thanks for joining Motoring Alliance, the FUN and Friendly MINI Community.

    Thanks for the advise - I think I will bring it in and have the trans fluid changed. I will also see what they say. Thanks!
