Note - BMW has introduced several specialty tools recently that use 14x18mm attachments to a torque wrench. One special tool (see photo above-click to enlarge) is used to tighten the vanos adjusters to the camshafts on a BMW B48 (4-cyl) engine. Unfortunately, these adjusters are on the rear of engine creating space constraints with the firewall. BMW suggests using a Stahlwille ST730N/20 torque wrench with the tool but it does not possess angle torque capability. The Facom E.316 series offer both torque and angle readings without having to step up to Stahlwille's considerably more expensive 713R series torque wrench.
