Lifting C06
Wanted to pull tires off one by one to clean rotors and brake dust as well as putting fender guards on while tire was off. Read manual and saw two point lift locations. Can anyone give me some ideas and what to use to lift car.
Thank you

I believe you can lift separately on each of the 4 red dots (ie do one wheel at a time) - somebody here confirm?

If you search the forum you will find the solution, it has been discussed many times. There is a unit you can buy that fits a low profile jack that lifts both points from the back or front. I made one out of wood and it works fine. I drive the front onto ramps (also wood, that I made), jack the back and put blocks under the back tires. The back needs to be an inch or so higher to allow the oil to drain if you're changing the oil.
