NAVITEL Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago So, I didn't get a spare, jack, or wheel brace with my new purchase. I have a question for the group: has anyone ever needed a jack and wheel brace for their vehicle? If so, have you purchased them? I feel like I'll regret not getting them and then I'll never use them if I do. Is anyone thinking about that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BENZE220AMG Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago Somebody has gotten their hands on your toolbox. An electric inflator, wheel braces, and a jack are all standard equipment on my E63s. I suggest you have one of these in your toolbox because the wheelbrace is subpar. There is also a plethora of options on eBay. No extras are available. The electric inflator and tyre sealant are to be utilised by us. In case of an unexpected situation, get up a few cans of tyreweld at Halfords.

NAVITEL Posted 9 hours ago Author Share Posted 9 hours ago Awful, awful s****. 🤬. Should I invest in the right jack? I find that wheel brace to be quite useful. Superior quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
migueldosantos77 Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago A jack and wheel brace are standard equipment in neither my A Class nor the other person's. The air pump and the bottle of worthless stuff are all you get. A spare doughnut wheel, jack, and wheel brace were all things I bought for both of them. It is not in my interest to be stranded, retrieved, or held to ransom by a tyre manufacturer that does not even carry my tyre size. After a puncture, I did in fact use the spare doughnut wheel that I had bought for the A class. I'm really grateful that I had it on hand because getting a matching tyre was a two-day ordeal.

DenishP4 Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago My 212 snapped in half the second I tried to use my jack on it. I wouldn't recommend it because of the price of the wrong jack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Needsnewtyres2 Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago Yes, I did purchase the jack and tools (I had a compatible wheel beforehand), and yes, I have used them. There was a holdup in getting the puncture fixed because it happened on Christmas Eve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
