Automotive tools you should own

When you remove the wheels from your BMW it is very important to torque the nuts back on using a Torque Wrench

 

.

This is a great Ratcheting mutli headed Wrench by Black and Decker that has 16 of the most common Standard (SAE) and Metric (MM) socket sizes built in.

.

 

The Stanley Standard and Metric Socket set with case is a great buy.  They are high quality tools at a good price.

.

 

The DEWALT Impact Wrenchis a great tool.  Personally I think DeWalt are the best hand tools available and when you’re working on your car the impact wrench saves so much time.

.

The jacks that come with your BMW are designed for use in an emergency and on a flat surface but if you plan on jacking up your car then I recommend this Torin Racing Jackwhich is high quality with a low price tag and will not damage the bottom of your BMW.

.

 

If you are planning on getting underneath your car after you’ve jacked it up then you need it to be on a set of Jack Stand.  They are not expensive and make almost any work possible and safe on your driveway.

 

 

.

If you’re going to jack up the rear of your car then you need to Chock the front wheels to prevent the car from rolling off the jack.

.

.

If you mainly drive short distances your battery may go flat.  Don’t replace it, use a Battery Chargerto charge it overnight.

 

.

This Jump-N-Carry Battery starter kit is an essential automotive tool to carry in your car.  lets face it we have all had to endure having a flat battery and it really ruins your day.  This will get you back on the road in no time.

.

Check your tires with a Digital Tire Pressure Gauge.Pressures should always be set correctly on your BMW as the pressure affects both handling and fuel efficiency.  For normal driving your tires should all be around 30 PSI but check your tire wall for exact pressure.

.

 

The Tire Tread Depth Gauge is an automotive tool that tells you how much tread is left on your tires.  Once you have less than 1.6mm on 75% of your tire it is time to get yourself a set of replacement E46 tires.
