The last (bottom in this picture) slot should be for the red T handle that releases the electronic shifter and parking brake (or it was on my 2008) in the event of a dead battery and needing to tow the vehicle....I found it humorous that it was in the back where it was inaccessible if the battery was dead as you couldn’t open the tailgates (or even the glove box to get at the manual to figure out how to put the SAV onto a flatbed) and kept mine in the driver’s door pocket for emergency. Perhaps the system has changed in 2012’s and the tool is no longer needed.

Both of you are missing a wheel lock key (goes in the remaining spot). Understandable if you don't have wheel locks, but vital if you do.

My 2012 X5d came with it when I picked it up last October.

Interesting. My March 2012 build did not. I posed the same question when I noticed the tool was missing and several people mentioned that in 2012 they stopped including the orange T and that the override no longer exists. Some people have even posted stories about trouble with towing due to the lack of a manual override anymore.

I think the diesel and the gas versions have different releases (ie you can get a 2013 gas now, but the 2012 diesel is the latest model). That might be why
