On a 2020 M550i XDrive where are the jack points for a floor jack located?

Same location as all other G3X’s.
Seeing as you can’t be arsed to look in your owners manual or google it, I’ve made it easy for you

Manual only shows #2 Jack points for the self-service jack, not the 1 or 3 points and especially not the critical point for #3.

You’re right manual does only show position #2, I stand corrected

Dont forget the jack pads - like the clown who went to jack up my car 'somewhere' along the sill.
He, nor anyone in the garage, had ever hear of the correct jacking procedure.
The was a one series up off it's wheels, on two hydraulic floor jacks.
The owner was also surprised, but rather displeased when I pointed to the damge it had caused. One jack was actually under the correct point, but had completely crushed the part where the pad was supposed to fit.
Thankfully, I had one in the boot, and have never been back to the place.

Thanks folks. This old fart did try to google it but did not find this so again thanks. As for the pads? I guess I need to check those out also as BMW is new to me and I do not have any for my speed jack. I guess my old Mustang and 1968 F100 did not need them

Are you saying that the 4 rubber jack pads are missing? If any are missing, then yes, you should replace them because they are needed to raise the car from either of the side locations…or to place the car on jack stands.

All BMWs I’ve ever seen have 4 rubber jack pads…two on each side…and even if the front & rear (center) jacking points aren’t mentioned in the owners manual…the 4 (side) jack pad locations are…even on the latest BMWs that don’t come with a jack/tire iron/wheel chock because BMW mounted them with runflat tires.

Well thanks again. The car has it's jack pads but the floor jack a metal claw cup. Went on line and found some made for BMW pads and jack inserts also some jack stand mounts for BMW.
Thanks again for saving me from a big mad at me moment!

For some reason I could never find those adapters to fit my jack stands but copy pasting that exact wording this time led me right to it. Appreciate it.
