I’ve seen the other threads and haven’t seen a satisfactory answer I don’t think. I always had a Sprinter Jack with the modified head for the 322. My understanding is this isn’t necessarily compatible with the 405 (without deployable steps in my case).

What are people using as a solution please (preferably still with the Sprinter jack), as I presume the supplied jack is still chocolate? 2021 3.0 P400 Vogue - coming!

Use a 3 tonne trolley jack. Sorry, no idea what a sprinter is or whether suitable. 2016 SDV8 AB

I think the jack referred to is a bottle jack which is part of the Mercedes sprinter van tool kit.

Sprinter jack was popular with the L322, but doesn't work with the L405.

AFAIK, no-one has yet come up with a suitable alternative.....

I think I would call the breakdown service if out on the road with a flat...

IMHO too dodgy to do it yourself.... but I am getting old now  Pete

I had a flat and I called out the RAC (thats why I joined) and wheel changing was an easy although I did help manhandle the 22" alloy out of the boot. All changed by the time I finished my coffee and I didn't get my hands dirty or raise a sweat..

I'm also to old for that sort of  Geoff

I get “free” RAC Membership, Mobile Phone insurance, and Travel Insurance with my bank account, it’s a no-brainer. “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” -where’s the fun in that?

I used to get it free when I earned a lot, but now I am a struggling old age pensioner so have to pay £30/ month to the bank plus a bit extra for travel insurance (over 70) but its worth it not to have the hassle of working. Geoff

I've got trolley jacks (and a sprinter!) at home but had to use the chocolate one when I actually had a flat on the road. Seemed to work and saved me a couple of hours waiting...I'm too old to wait around! Mike - MPx
