The pad behind the front wheel is made for the OEM scissor jack.... per the owners manual.

Although you can put a floor jack there.. when I did it as a test, it caught the plastic body piece.. I didn't want to crush it so I followed the hoist points above.

Good news. You'll find the hardest part is cleaning the wheels once it's off.

One thing though, you may find the front wheels are rusted on. Just put a couple of lug nuts on loosely and lower your floor jack. Mine came right off after the rust seal was broken.

You'll definately need to drive onto some boards to access the jacking point from the front otherwise the fascia is too low for the handle. I use a 2x12 that's beveled.

Wow, very good to know! Less mess not having to deal with brake fluid I'm starting to love my domestic more and more as I read more about it

when using the location behind the wheel.
