Eveyone seems to think the whole tool thing would have been easier to use in the long run and question why the change to doing it "electrnically" was ever done.

Do you at least have the "Warning Triangle" in the trunk? or the First Aid Kit..... We don't get these in the US.
) So funny, I complained to my dealer that my car lacks the tool, and he took one from from a 523i (pre sep 2010) at the show-room and gave it to me)) Should i return it?
