How to refill the oil in your 2002-2006 R53 MINI Cooper Eaton M45 supercharger. Oil Fill Amount: Front: 4.9oz + Rear: 1.4oz
Remove supercharger from car. Also replace water pump inlet o-ring. Running out of oil can cause water pump PTO gear damage or other supercharger damage.

Sorry, the camera battery died during re-assembly. I will make a new full video the next time I do this job. (And I am buying a bigger battery for my camera-argh!)
