Keep oil draining freely out of the turbocharger with the Standard Ignition Turbocharger Drain Tube TIH42. It installs as a direct-fit replacement on the 2008-2009 MINI Cooper and the 2011 MINI Cooper, returning oil from the turbocharger back to the engine's oil sump so the turbo's center bearing housing stays properly drained.
If a leaking or restricted drain tube is the cause of your oil loss, this replaces the original line. Diagnose the source of any leak before ordering to confirm the drain tube is at fault.
