Re: Broken jack point

Doug,
Like everyone has already stated, you lost a 'hockey puck'. 
Welcome to the not so exclusive club. There is hardly an E36 owner out 
there who hasn't gone through a few pucks. Some continue to replace them 
with dealer parts. Others junk them and put a real hockey puck on top of 
the jack saddle when they need to jack up the car. 
If you decide to replace them, I have a collection of both new and barely 
used ones. Either type can be yours for 1/2 the going dealer rate 
(whatever it is these days).
