Accessories that come with 2021 M5?

fullsmoke · 11-08-2020, 05:47 AM

Hello all!

Recently picked up a 2021 M5 w executive package and drivers assist plus package. Also opted for the 20” bi spoked wheels. My question is: what accessories was this supposed to come with?

These are why I have:
Manual
I have 2 keys, 1 key card
Tire inflation/sealer kit
2 tow hooks and a screwdriver

Am I missing a jack or something? I assume we don’t have a spare wheel?

Thanks

That is correct. No spare. You can’t even (easily) pull up the floor in the trunk, where a spare would be. If (God forbid) you have a flat by the side of the road, you will need to use the canister of sealant and pump provided, and then drive to the nearest place you can have your tire repaired or replaced. Kinda unnerving, I know, but that’s what BMW does now, in at least their M cars. I had the same in my 2013 e92 M3. All the other stuff sounds like what I have, except I am not sure I have two tow hooks.

I’d have to look again.

Shouldn’t we still get a scissor jack even if we don’t have a spare?

The assumption must be that there is no need, I guess, if the sealant and pump work as they should, as there is no spare to install. Oh, and also, cost... Btw, I checked and I do have two tow hooks. Wondering why...?

I would assume to be able to pin down the front and rear on a flat bed tow truck or trailer?

So, the fix a flat kit has a foam cutout for ONE tow hook. The other tow hook I have has no “home” to rest in. My M5 was transported from another state so I assume they used two hooks to secure the vehicle in transport. Every single other car I’ve had has always come with 2 tow hooks and a scissor jack that were neatly packed away in a special spot of the trunk—even if they didn’t come with a spare.

So I’m bewildered by the lack of a jack and only one tow hook in a 100+k car!
