I'm trying to replace the vacuum pump on my 2006 530xi. There are several special tools needed for this job. I'd be happy to rent them or join some kind of coop that, for a small fee circulates the tools. Does anybody know of such a thing?

the tools are all detailed at

This is a subset of the full instructions for removing the pump that are at

I know I can get away without the little pin that holds the belt tensioner in place. But the other tools are:

110290 Holder (the piece that holds the crankcase pulley in place while removing the bolts that hold the vacuum on)

114362 Adapter (the piece that screws into 11361 that acts as an offset to and allows you to apply pressure to the 119200 to pull out the sealing cap)

114361 Clip (the jig that attaches properly to the engine block allowing you to place the 114362 Adapter right in the middle of the sealing cap for removal)

114363 & 114364 Spindles (that work with the clip and adapter)

119200 Extractor (The machined disk that fits well over the sealing cap with a ring of holes allowing for attachment of extractor to sealing cap for extraction)
