Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

similar to the Bentley rear jacking point, is there a front jacking point in the middle i can use to jack up the car? So i don't have to jack up one side at a time when trying to access the front?

POST 2Original post

I believe there's no front, central jacking point so you do have to jack up each of the sides to access the front underside.

POST 3Original post

If there is no one is telling us where it is. One of the few things that drives me crazy about my two german cars.

POST 4Original post

I have never seen a good jacking point in the front/center of the car. I'm with Keith on this one.

POST 5Original post

There is NO front jacking point, don't even try. If you try to raise it from the front where there is nothing but sheetmetal, you'll bend metal and seriously upset your steering geometry. Best way is to raise the rear and get a jackstand under the front on that side - the chassis is stiff enough to raise the front. Then lower the rear and switch sides and do it again.
