How do you put a BMW X6 in neutral without starting it?
My husband forgot to fill up the tank of our BMW X6, and it ran out of gas while we were out shopping. We weren't far from a gas station and wanted to push the car closer but couldn’t get the car moving. Is there a way to shift the BMW X6 into neutral without starting the engine?
