If you are cheap like me, none of those four tools are required to take the cam shafts, chains, and the VANOS apart.

If that special tool set gives you peace of mind, get it. I don't remember using anything special to take the cams and VANOS apart. A full set of metric sockets and wrenches are what I have and Bentley is what I used.
