What Torx sockets do I need?
21. Jul 2006 at 21:56

Hi, I have plenty of metric sockets and spanners (and BSF and whitworth!). I have discovered TORX on my Omega 2.5 V6. I managed to buy a good set of screwdriver Torx plus I have some in another tool set.

What Torx sockets am I likely to need please for jobs on the engine and car? I managed to get the wiring loom bolt off with a normal metric socket when I did my plug leads.

I personaly have a set of these:

There are quite a few different sizes required so its worth getting a set, plus, pretty much all mass produced mechanical items now use them as they are designed for auto assembly and are very good for fixings that require a specific torque....

or for the budget type:
