Audi tech, favorite tool, the cash register. Filling it with people's money that drive any used German car. Expensive repairs.

[@aayesher9400]

Nah they make like 5% of what the actual repair cost was

[@nickb1892]

[@grant1090]

1st and 4th guy are very smart. I promise the power ratchets are your best friend

[@thechum9653]

I got one as a gift and always wanted one, but never thought i would use it all that much, but after getting it it is easily the most used tool in my box.

There you have it boys, this explains why your oil drain plugs are so tight. Impact driver is the only tool they use for tightening

Favourite tool??? The service manager

[@maddoxsharp5020]

Yep, I carry a Leatherman and a pocket light at work every day, that and a Klein 13 in 1. Itll fix almost anything we work on.

I believe the guys who say 1/4’’ driver, cause the first step of any Audi maintenance is to remove the entire front end of the car.

1/4” impacts/ratchets. Are probably the most useful tool for any mechanic field. I’d pair that with a 6” wide mouth adjustable wrench. You can handle a lot of stuff with that combo. I’m in heavy machinery so we have a lot of nuts to deal with. More so than automotive.

Favourite tool is my 1/4 inch bluepoint impact wrench and my snapon torque wrench

[@callumjemison3299]

I personally have the snap on brushless version, but I would have picked the same tool up as the first guy with the battery ratchet

[@TrixtrYT]
