@@ferjim2804 mainly it just makes everything better while working and you can work harder and actually enjoy it. It also seems for me I'm able to learn more and solve mechanical issues much better when I'm high, I prefer to work stoned
@@patrickvanherk 1 Milwaukee impact, 2 Milwaukee cordless ratchets (easy to confuse with their right angle impact driver because they look almost identical)
@@aayesher9400 I have a family mechanic, gratefully. I understand that labor costs are up there. Mechanics deserve the money that they earn, but I've only ever owned older cars.
Tf thag supposed to mean? You want dirty ass people getting in your $40k $50k cars? I thought customers liked clean techs... being dirty isnt a plus point. There's something called personal hygiene, you should keep up with it.
@@CAPTAINTUFA bro I don’t care about using gloves and getting dirty but whenever I’m going inside the customer car for whatever reason even if it is one second I go and wash off and go in, never faced a customer but always tried to keep it clean👍🏻 only ones that will get dirty without wanting to are diesel mechanics that I have seen
as an audi tech the electric ratchet truly is gods gift to mankind. the amount of t25s just scattered around these vehicles does not seem possible, but by god they grow like fucking wildflowers on these things
Watching these cause I consistently can’t get a job working on cars and am honestly thinking about giving up. Working on my own is my destiny I guess. Also impact driver?? The hell he on?
I made a ton of money when I worked for Audi I make more now working in an independent shop, but Audi was without a doubt the best/highest paying dealer I worked for and is probably the only brand I would go back to
impact drivers are insanely useful when working on cars. easy and fast to swap attachments, high speed, etc. i use it the most to take off splash shields and snug up lug nuts , but it can be used anywhere in the engine bay for the most part
@Logan of course, i didn't even think about everytime I pull a splash guard off I use one. For everything thing else I use an impact wrench, I guess I assumed the impact driver didn't have the power to break things loose
@@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
Seems like a cool shop with cool people. When I worked at both a GM and a Lexus dealer I was surrounded by red faced, racist, hungover boomers who were constantly throwing stuff and screaming in rage. Maybe if I had applied to the Scooby Snack Audi dealership I would have enjoyed my tenure as a technician more.

I’ve Been Absolutely Abusing My Old Version DEWALT Battery Impact Driver Meant For Screws I Use it With a Socket Adapter and Just Beat On it on a Daily Basis It’s Been Over 10 Years Now & it’s Still Goes Perfectly!!!! 🤷♂️😂😂😂
Every real Audi mechanic will show the special tool for removing the infamous bolt that holds the top two wishbones from multi-link axles. In germany it's commonly knows as the "Arschlochschraube" (Asshole-Bolt).
Pretty sure any VW/Audi/Porsche technicians favorite tool is the scan tool because without that and factory service manuals they couldn't fix a red flyer children's wagon.
The all-data terminal. To order new parts, because you don't actually "work" on those cars. You just replace broken shit or quote jobs so high the customer just buys a new Audi.
Honest. I’ve got a vice-gripping crescent wrench. Best thing ever invented. All these other tools are nice, but my favorite tool does about half my jobs.
Not sure why the last guy is using a surge for mechanic work. It's for electricians for noise reduction purposes. The standard driver has soooo much more power .. ps for the ones Wondering. The tools he's holding is easily identified by the molded in cover. The tool is hydraulic
10-20 times a day. It that tech a service mechanic or salesman. I only work on 1 car but easily I'd use my impact more than that. 20 times is only removing the wheels.
Bullshit I’ve been replacing control arms ball joint tie rods pitman arm and idler arm and I still haven’t got to use my impact more than twice you can’t fit them where you need to
