Fits the following models:
2002-2006 R50 MINI Cooper non-S Hardtop (all transmissions) 2002-2006 R53 MINI Cooper S Hardtop with Automatic transmission

If you have an early MINI built before 07/2004, take a look at this article regarding the different oil cannister cover design.
For the 3 bolts that attach the Housing to the Block, use the following Torque: 30 Nm (22 lb-ft) on the W10 engine (Cooper non-S) 25 Nm (18 lb-ft) on the W11 engine (Cooper S)
NOTE: The hole at the bottom of the oil filter will appear much smaller than the shaft in the filter base - this is NORMAL and CORRECT. If you press the filter into the base, the hole will 'stretch' over the shaft. This is a design feature to ensure a tight seal so the oil does not bypass the filter.
I have a 2008 R52 Mini Cooper convertible. I have not had any luck with my mechanic ordering the correct oil filter housing unit. I have had to pay for 3 all of which being the wrong one. Aside from getting different mechanic how can I order the correct one myself. Can I use a picture of the broken one?
Answer:
After checking with our contacts at MINI, we confirmed that our NME8755 is the correct replacement oil filter housing for your MINI. I see that this item was superceded from another part number at one time - which means this may be a newer version and may not be identical to the one you are trying to replace. However is it the correct replacement based on the vin number you provided.

The early MINI with production dates up to 07/2004 has a couple extra pieces inside the oil filter cannister cover - a spring and plastic cage. These items were eliminated on the later models after 07/2004. This article explains the differences and what to do if you lose some of these parts.
