TRIPLE SQUARES! Almost forgot about those freaks. You can't do your brake pads, along with other stuff, without it. I think it is literally a VW and Audi thing only?

I found two different socket sets by Neiko. One for XZN sockets and one for Torx sockets. Would you consider these good quality? They aren't terribly pricey and have gotten very good reviews it seems.
Get a socket and wrench set What I got
Get torx bits What I got
I got the Haynes Audi A4 book but everyone suggests the Bentley manual, I don't know which is better, I just know that the Haynes helps a bit and is ~100USD less expensive
Jack and Jack stands
35mm or 36mm socket for the oil filter. WIG
That ought to get you through a good chunk of work. Cost me ~200USD for that. Although I did get other things for the car like;
Triple square bits What I got
1/2in breaker bar
Sockets for the 1/2in breaker bar
Security bit set What I got ,Used it to replace a few sensors
Yeah, that's it. The extras ran me ~90usd more
Here is a set I use from Amazon. Napa didn't even have a large enough socket for a Passat axle bolt.

Had this set for 4 years with no issues until I upgraded to the stubby snapon ones https://www.amazon.com/Neiko-10056A-Triple-Square-10-Piece/dp/B004WK9I3O/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=triple+square+socket+set&qid=1568772882&sr=8-4
Edit: Yes, I use them with impact tools :)
Well, I hope I got the right ones.
Online retail calls them "Triple Square Spline Drive."
Actually, I did get the right ones. They are also listed as "AZN" which is the other name for triple square.
