You shouldn't need any additives if you are using the correct engine oil , it won't do any great harm but it won't do any great good as well , regular oil changes using a very good 05/30 fully synthetic 'low sapps' oil and an OE spec filter will keep the engine in decent condition , ( we have a few coming into the workshop with over 250000 miles on them on the original engine ) also very important is changing the transmission oil , MINI say its sealed for life and doesn't need changing BUT take it from Me it does !! . brake fluid also needs changing every 40 thousand or so , again something owners neglect .

...so,,, i put about 200mls of Slick50 in her last night,,, ,
and i'm sure there was a little vibration in th engine thats not there anymore.
of course i changed th oil and th oil filter last week,,,Castrol magnatec 5/30,, and Mann filter.
No question th oil and filter needed changing!!!!
She's runnin pretty nice!!!!
