No Plastic Jacking point for 2015 F30 328i

Abdulsamad · 10-25-2020, 05:51 PM

Hello Everyone,
I was trying to jack the car today and I noticed that there are no Plastic jack pad on all 4 jacking points. I was afraid of jacking the car thinking that I would break something. I also want to mention that I have 4 Jack adapters so that the plastic won't break when Jacking the car up. Any suggestions on what to do to lift the car up ?

The owner took them off.
You can jack them at the spot where the plastic jack slots were.

You'll need to replace those plastic shoes for jacking but temporary, you can jack the car up at many solid points under the car. I can't point them out off the top of my head but if you google for suitable jacking points for BMW, you'll find them.

I got four of these, which I glued into place with black silicone adhesive, so I never have to be searching around my garage for one.

It also beats needing three hands, one to hold the pad in place, one to position the jack and one to pump the jack.
