This table brings together the ten engines of the Mini R56 and R57, from 2006 to 2015. The petrol One and Cooper use the N12B14, N12B16 and later the N16B16; the Cooper S and John Cooper Works rely on the turbocharged N14 and N18, up to the 218 hp of the John Cooper Works GP, built in 2,000 units. On the diesel side, the PSA DV6 gives way to the BMW N47, which also powers the 143 hp Cooper SD. Note your Mini's engine code to target the right parts.
