Honestly I'm surprised you got a screwdriver. I thought they stopped doing that years ago.

As long as you have the tow hook and locking wheel nut adapter you're good to go

Score, it's rare! Quick, add it to the build sheet/signature.

I have the mobility kit (in a small bag) in a compartment on the left side of my trunk/boot, but I haven't seen anything that looks remotely like the OP's picture. Where is that supposed to be?

You pull the plastic under the mobility kit.

I always wondered what is the benefit of having a screwdriver? I’m sure when the car breaks down the first tool the mechanic looks for is not a screwdriver

You're right, the first tool a good mechanic should look for, is a hammer.

Well when my charge pipes came off my car while driving, I was lucky I had a screwdriver to tighten it down and drive off. Of course this was after buying BimmerLink immediately on the side of the road LOL.

Interesting note. If you look in the manual in the "everything from A to Z" section at the end, "screwdriver" is listed there. It points you to the vehicle tool kit section, which does not mention a screwdriver.

Yeah, just asking, have you personally read the manual yourself?

Is the screwdriver for insertion into the ear of that Prius driver hanging out in the fast lane?

I have had 2 of these cars now and didn't get a screwdriver with either one. As for the left lane loser, I guess I will just have to beat him to death with the flat tire kit.

No sign of a locking wheel nut adapter in mine. Do U.S. spec M3Cs come with locking wheel nuts?

Only if you order locking wheel nuts on your car. They are optional. No locking wheel nuts.. no adaptor.

The screwdriver is to help tighten the tow loop when you crank it into the frame before towing. If your tow loop isn’t tight a hauler might pull it up or to the side, making it hard to remove without dinging up your bumper.

Didn’t realise that - they’re standard fitment in the UK
