OEM BMW Jack Set 71106773536
For all vehicles except the X3, X5, and X6 SAVs. Kit includes scissors-type jack, jack ratchet handle, torque wrench (130Nm), folding wedge sheel chock, cotton gloves, tire marking chalk, and operating instrutions.
Are you sure that's preset or does that just mean it only has a top end of 130Nm? The latter seems more likely but I could be wrong.
