I bought an electric impact wrench and was wondering when it is appropriate to use it and when some muscle on a standard ratchet might be a better choice. My new axle came today for my 03 1.8T. If I can get a straight line to the flange bolts should I go impact?

Its a 2000 1.8t Recently I had to put in regular for a short while due to fuel prices ( thank god it went down now ) and I noticed it was sort of sluggish off the line. The throttle response was laggy or slow as in I would touch the gas and the car would feel strained. Which really bothered me...

I'm looking to buy an impact wrench to assist my DIY work on my B5 (suspension, exhaust, general wheel removal). I bought the cordless 18V Mastercraft maximum from Crappy Tire on sale for $129.99 and was disappointed with the power it had. It boasted up to 1800 lbs torque (well above ratings...

Hi folks A friend of mine has a B6 1.6 FSI (petrol) (I have a B5, which Club B5 has saved interminable times :thumbup: ) which he drove at slow speed into a massive pothole yesterday (Irish roads all screwed up after the unexpected snow - and no money to fix them thanks to the recession). The...

I managed to run into a curb yesterday evening, trying to squeeze onto a freeway onramp with the sun right in my eyes. (Yeah, I know, bad idea to do stuff like that when you can't see clearly... maybe it's time to get a new windshield, too, it's so pitted it's very hard to see into the sun.)...

Automotive related because of what I want to use it for... I'd like to get an electric impact wrench for doing my 5K mile wheel rotations and my summer/winter wheel swaps. I do them all myself, and would like to save some time if the price is right. Also useful for unforseen repairs/mod days...

Any ideas on why the passat received a poor rating on rear impact from IIHS? Is it just the seats/headrests they are talking about? Must say, I think my daughter is safer in the '03 wagon than my '91 GTI. : ) Just a BIT more space between the bumper and passenger. Just before I sold the GTI I...

Ok to make a long story short, Last night I was in an Acura TSX with one of my friends. We were driving to our friends house after cross country practice.(Keep in mind that I senseless1707 was in the passenger seat) As we were driving along we come to the street where our friend lives on. As we...

I would like to buy one of these for 2 reasons. 1) Remove lug nuts quickly 2) Drill the heck out of my metal bumper to install a hitch Can a impact wrench serve as a drill or hammer drill take off lugs? I would rather have a corded one instead of a cordless just so I don't have to worry about...
