Markus,
Here we have Harbor Freight- thousands of retail stores selling very cheap (but O.K.) tools .Lots of discount coupons .So you can get a monster 3/4" drive torque wrench for $50.
3/4" Torque Wrench
I presume there is something similar in Germany?
Thanks for the confirmation about GKN. I am sure Steven's wife appreciates it too !
Steven a great tool to buy for your wife - I have just done this - a large ultra sonic cleaner .Yes it works well for fuel injectors but you can tell her it is for all the jewelery you'll be buying her in future? I tried it on both the injectors and the jewels - it works very well.

I would like to replace the outer CV boots on my 2001 S 6 speed but the engine+trans is out now and I did not think to loosen the big nut on the hub first ! Just wondering if anyone has used a 3/4" air impact tool to remove the big nut? At 340NM++ I am worried I may break something.
