Bosch KTS570 — Allows us to diagnose multi-vehicle brands. Very good technical support and vehicle information database, especially for European and Japanese vehicles. Solid product.

Bosch Diesel Set 3 — This lets us test the common rail pump and pressure rail sensor without the need to remove these components. Saves us a lot of time. When we remove a component, we are already sure it’s the problematic one.

Bosch Injector Return Flow Gauge — Lets us test the mechanical side of the common rail injector while installed on the engine. Works great with the Bosch Diesel Set 3. Also saves us a lot of time.

Koken 1/2” Dr. Flexi Head Ratchet — Makes working in ­restricted spaces easier.

Unior Torx 1/2” Dr. Socket — Is easier on the hands compared to the cheaper Torx with T-handles. It’s stronger too.
