Where is the Tow Eye?

The manual indicates the tow eye should be in the trunk under the floor panel. I looked but can not find it.
Anyone know where it is?

It is supposed to be there but mine was not either. The tech at the dealership gave me one when I inquired as to where it was.

Called my dealer, he said he would give me one.

I had the same issue. Looked all over and it wasn't there. I had to tow the car because one of the clamps holding the coolant hose was defective and wasn't holding the hose so the coolant reservoir emptied out (good thing I was in parking lot waiting to go inside a store and not driving). Had to get my wife to drive to the dealership to get the tow hook while I waited with the tow truck. Not a fun experience so look for the tow hook before you need it and realize you don't have it.

Same here, just realised it’s missing which means the tow truck can’t move the car

Looks like none of you followed the link AMG_Eric posted. It's under the rear parcel shelf in a molded plastic holder.

Thanks, I'll take a look when I get my car back from the workshop. Unfortunately, due to bank holidays and travel, I'm not likely to see it for another week or so (assuming they can find the fault in that time, I think wiring problems are a bit of a nightmare to trace).

Top of the trunk not the lid. My coupe is anyway.

Mine isn't in trunk, underneath the panel by the spare or on top above the storage area 🤷‍♂️

I'll order one off Amazon.
