    Which M mobility Sealant?

    I realize using the sealant will gum up the wheel, tire, etc. and calling flat bed is first, but for $35 I'd like to carry this last resort. Noticed there is a bottle which is seems your squirt directly into the tire by removing the valve stem first (71100415041) and there is a version where the bottle gets rigged on on the inflation line and the pump squeezes sealant in through the valve core (71102282827) - this is the version that came with my M3 (2006) and I have the pump to match, which I assume can also just be used to directly inflate just the same.

    Anyone have experience with the two different systems?

    Generic plug kit is a less messy option and those are available at all auto part stores.

      Agreed. On any repair where sealant is a viable option a plug would be better. I would also consider adding some valve stem cores and good sealed valve stem caps to your kit. You will need a good pump to help with plugging as it’s near impossible to get a plug in if the tire is at all under inflated.

      I completely understand you are talking about a Hail Mary situation, but I have never seen sealant successfully get a car back on the road.
      Old, not obsolete.
