Did that first guy say his tool was a “life saver” or a “lite saber”???? 😂😂😂😂
My coworkers are my favorite tools
Those ratchets are a godsend. Gets into tight spots with minimal effort. Gotta appreciate when your knuckles aren’t busted up.🙏🏼😂
"no joke, impact gun for oil drain plugs. Love how quickly I can CRANK your plug back in."
The LIFT. Clearly.
all the speakers from 91CDs
My favorite tool is "the right one for the application".
Nice. I have the stubby m12 fuel 1/4 impact driver and the m12 fuel ratchet.
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
Either Audi pays its technicians really well, or they supply the tools. Seen a whole Lotta Milwaukee and snap on in that shop

I'd show my favorite too but it can't fit on screen
Favourite tool is my 1/4 inch bluepoint impact wrench and my snapon torque wrench
I agree with the first guy
As a machinist it's hard choice between my impact driver or my duel sided mallet
My long 3/8 flex head matco ratchet has to be my favorite the leverage/reach is everything I try and use it in every situation so I don't waste time breaking stuff free with a average sized ratchet plus adding a swivel with the flex head 😱
Favourite tool??? The service manager
Talk about having superior job security, being an Audi mechanic.
whats your favorite tool? bmw mechanics: this here is my engine hoist, used it every day since day 1
Once you get your bill from the shop , you'll figure out where all that snap- on and Milwaukee stuff came from :)

@@rubes1688 i mean probably not for anything bigger than a 12 but there’s tons of little bolts in the engine bay for resorvoirs, engine covers, etc not to mention on the interior and for tailight housings and things. if it can’t break a bolt loose i’ll use an electric ratchet
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.
My faworite tools as semi mechanic are impact gun and angle grinder
This looks like a Milwaukee commercial
I like a breaker bar
Zero complaints with Milwaukee.
Favorite tool for me be the press that crushes an Audi in a cube for scrapping.
She said, "Show me your favorite tool"😂😂😂🥒
I’m a real man. I use a 3/4 inch impact driver for tightening bumper screws
