What should be part of my E93 toolkit?

This is what I got and it seems to be missing the two sided wrench I saw in someone else's toolkit picture. Is that ok or should it be there?

I have the wrench in my E93 kit. 10mm one end and 13mm the other end. Also I have two identical keys for the wheel locks. Here is a photo:

Thanks Hal. So is the wrench for the sunroof like the other poster said in the other forum (and thus I suppose it doesn't matter if I'm missing it)?

Do you know what the wrench is used for?

There are so many 10 and 13mm nuts and bolts in the car so that wrench can be for just about anything.

Hi Hal, do you mind double checking for me please that it's definitely a 10 and a 13? I told them today about the missing wrench, and they gave me one that's an 8 and a 10...

It is 10 and 13mm. They probably just randomly took one from a toolbox for you.

What's the deal with the black/red carrying pouch? I just have the trunk tray like in the second pic.

The tool pouch is an E93 thing. It doesn't have the tool tray in the side of trunk like E90/1/2 becasue of the retracting top. Instead, we get a tool pouch stowed below the trunk floor.

Well, my brother just got his E93 335 today (LOL, I know...at least he got a different colour), and guess what? No wrench. Go figure. Maybe as of the May production cars, they've started to cut back on them to save costs?

I don't see a wrench in my 335xi ... It was an April build, but I just got the car back through PCD on Friday.

Did things change, or am I just missing one? I don't recall if there was one at the Welt or not.

The sunroof wrench is a z-shaped allen wrench for cranking the sunroof closed. BMW quit including that wrench as an economy measure. The open end wrench is a general purpose tool, altough I could not tell you where there are nuts or hex head bolts that match the wrench.
