No, it won't work, you need the BMW-type 'block'. See here: http://www.fullfatrr.com/forum/topic14177....ck+adapter

just ordered one...

he said they just got another 100 in stock and so plenty available if anyone is looking. tried to mention this forum and get a little discount but no movement there... hope others had better luck

does anyone know if any of these 3 (posted by kp on a previous form) work fine/is the best to use for the later L322 models. i quite like the black one but concerned that it isn't a metal alloy so may not support the weight as well:

Gaz - you think the "TOUGH VERSITILE PLASTIC MATERIAL" will be fine instead of the aluminium ones? MY11 Vogue 4.4 TDV8 - "African Queen"

Personally I don't think the plastic ones will be much good with a bottle jack, they are designed to sit flat on a trolley jack Confused

The "plastic" ones will be fine with a trolley jack where the base is evenly supported.
I certainly wouldn't use one with a bottle jack, too much of a point load on the jack shaft imo.
Any of the aluminium ones will be fine with a bottle jack, I have the bling version above, drilled out to fit the top of the Sprinter jack and feel very comfortable jacking the car with it.
