if there are autoparts stores in australia that rent you tools for free before deposit they should have one. i think that autozone in the US finally got a bmw cap, australia shouldn't have a problem with keeping a euro tester fitting around i would think.

Gone but not forgotten
it is like an arms race among autoparts stores here. one will offer a set of tools, then the next will improve on it or offer deluxe kits or let you use their wrenches and whatnot so long as you don't leave their parking lot.Originally Posted by BigKriss
here's an example of autozone

their competitor offers basically all of the tools needed to do thrust arms or replace a steering box for a $100 refundable rental.
if the autozone is in a non-ghetto area, they will even have a vacuum pump and r134 gauges for rent. the guy told me that to rent the two it would be about $301 USD, refundable when I returned it in working condition. i assumed that you guys had the same.
Big Kriss I cannot let you get away with that!
This is no help to anyone now but it could be we are 25 years ahead.
In Melbourne we had a specialized automotive tool rental place operating from the 1960s or earlier right up to some time in the 1990s when it closed down, never to resurface. It was in Cheltenham, not far from me (yeah - how lucky). You could take the tools home to use or use them in their workshop, which had a hoist and useful stuff like hydraulic press, steam cleaner, etc.
