General notes on using twin-pillar lifting platforms
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 BMW 128i, 2009 BMW 128i, and 2008 BMW 128i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
For the twin-pillar lifting platforms described, the BMW multitrailer is positioned in the direction of travel on the platform. For lifting platforms which do not create sufficient clearance between disk wheel and carrier arms, move the BMW multitrailer against the direction of travel onto the platform.
