Oil changes on the Boxster are reportedly a bitch, but so was my RS6. I can do it on ramps. Mike

I'd like a quickjack, however we have made the decision to go and live in sunnier climes, my wife has allowed for me to get a 'real' garage and install a two post lift.
I was considering getting a QJ anyway, but would need one that works for an F90 and an SLK350 which I suspect will not be possible. |

I have the QJ 6000XLT. It fits the M5 and X5. I have yet to use it for either though. I used it 2-4 times a year on my CTS-V for winter/summer wheel swaps, oil changes, and other work.
For the M5 it will be used for wheel swaps until the free maintenance expires. Some people use their quick jacks perpendicular to the car. That allows for almost any car to fit any jack. Of course the jacks themselves would be in the way if you need to drop the exhaust or driveshaft. |

Used mine this weekend, to lift the Avalon, oil change, and check the brake pads. It's heavy and a pain to move but the exposure is great.
Last week the Civic was up on the lift for a bit. Transmission service, etc..... Mike

Love them. Agree. Heavy and a bit of a pain to get all the pads lined up. Usually have my wife do one side and me the other. Wish someone made an adapter for the jack point that just had the puck already molded into it.

For my CTS-V I made a jig out of scrap wood that lined the jack up. It worked well enough. I lined the M5 up a couple weeks ago and convinced myself I don't need a jig anymore...but I don't remember why I thought that. Maybe the pucks and blocks only fit in 1 place. I'll figure it out in the fall when I mount my winter tires and post pics.

Haha. On my X5 the inserts have been crushed slightly by shops lifting without the pucks so sometimes my inserts get stuck in and I don’t catch it and drive off for days or weeks until I find myself walking up to the vehicle and I see it from a distance. Lol

I didn’t see where those wheels go when it’s lifting. Are they just installed on the moving arms I assume and not on the base plate?

You’re lucky you recovered. Hurneated a disc a few years ago doing some fencing in my back yard and have never recovered. Can’t even pick up the dog mess in the back yard without being in discomfort. If I’m not perfectly up right or sitting I’ll end up in pain u less I’m on some kind of pain reliever. Luckily hasn’t affected me lifting things. Just bending over slightly. Oddly enough I can bend and touch my toes just fine. Lol

Very. I washed the M5, Boxster and Sienna yesterday and had to spend the afternoon in cardiac rehab (JK). Did my 5 pound weight lifting today for shoulder rehab. 5 pounds. LOL. That's it. Mike
