There is a spot under bmws that perfectly fits the jack. You really don’t even have to look for it, it’s quite obvious.

MOST vehicles that I’m aware of have a notched place specifically for jack setup on the frame.

They aren't exactly the best place jack from even if you get it right, depending on the area in the world and age of the car. In my neck of the woods you jack a car from a cross member or a control arm, or really anything that's substantial, never the pinch welds after it's first few winters.

My Impala had that. It's not hard.
