Don’t panic now; there are just a few weeks before Father’s Day. Dads are notoriously tricky to shop for, but supporting their passions is a great way to connect with them and ensure you’ve grabbed something potentially meaningful or valuable. If they're into European cars, you're in the right place to support their passion, as we have loads of parts, tools, accessories, and merchandise all ready for your loved one.
Parts & Tools
Dads always seem to have everything they need until they don’t. Maybe they can make it work the way dads can, but ensuring he has the parts and tools he needs is always a better option for everyone. We have more than a few great products on sale that might be a great fit for a dad you know, so check ‘em out and pick one up before he starts taking advantage of the warmer weather.

Before any dad can start working on their car, they need to know what’s going wrong. Any one of the great code scanners from Autel can do the job, but if he drives a Volkswagen or Audi, there’s a better tool available. It’s called VCDS, by Ross-Tech, and offers a far more capable product than all but the top-spec professional-level scan tools. It works the same way, plugging into the vehicle’s OBD-II port and a laptop to provide basic service functions and module-coding capabilities. Once his VW/Audi is running right, he can then take advantage of APR’s Ultralink Tuning Cable, which’ll allow him to reflash his car’s engine and transmission computers. There are a few different tunes to choose from, depending on the vehicle, but each will improve fuel economy, shorten shift times, and provide extra power across the rev range. If the dad in your life owns a BMW or Mercedes, there are tuning options for him as well, from APR’s sister company, Dinan. Once an exclusive BMW tuner, Dinan has recently branched out into Mercedes support, offering the DINANTRONICS Sport Performance Tuner for M274 and M276-equipped vehicles. Please feel free to reach out to our customer service team with information on Dad’s vehicle to see whether these products will apply.
Maybe he needs a physical tool to make his life easier, like a specialized ignition coil removal tool. Created by CTA, it's purposely engineered to remove VW and Audi ignition coils without breaking them, as is so common. It’s technically a copy of an official VW tool, and while it's meant for VAG, it can be used across makes on modern vehicles.
Automotive Accessories

The manufacturers we choose to favor are often based on personal decisions. For some, it’s the car they saw in that movie when young, and for others, it represents time spent with dad in the driveway or garage, wrenching or simply holding the flashlight for him. Whatever the case, you can give Dad something that reminds him of his favorite brand this Father’s Day with an array of Genuine accessories. Each of the brands we support offers plenty of official merch that’ll slot right into the daily rotation, no matter what he’s doing.

Nothing starts the day quite like a wake-up beverage, but mornings can be tight, so that might have to be had on the road. Whether he’s into Porsche or BMW, both manufacturers offer insulated travel mugs in various sizes: Porsche has large and small at 16oz and 30oz, respectively, and BMW has the medium at 20oz. Porsche also offers a 16-oz water bottle for those who prefer to go caffeine-free.
Regardless of what he drives, he’ll need to stay prepared for anything, and nothing says that like an Audi Roadside Emergency Kit. Bandages, a multi-tool, an LED flashlight, and jumper cables are just part of what’s included in the all-encompassing kit. It’s best not to have that sliding around the trunk, where it could be hit by coolant or oil jugs, so consider pairing it with Mercedes’ collapsible shopping crate. It folds up when not needed, but is otherwise great for neatly and safely storing trunk essentials, like a BMW M Motorsports bucket hat for the crazy sunny car meets and beach days.
