Diagnostic Tools? 2002 Turbo S

Hi, I just bought a 2002 Turbo S, fun car, already in shop........ had to "defrag" the computer?? WTF?? it originally wouldn't start and it wasn't the fuel pump or the relay. All fixed $220 later, pick it up tomorrow.

My question is, what tools are involved in this type of operation? I'd assume a code reader and something else to reset the computer.., what other "special" tools should I have? Cost? A Bently manual is a must, I know, $80+.

My skill level I would rate at just below Pro tech as I've been building my own cars and computers for some 20 yrs now. Yet I'm not a pro mechanic.

Any help is welcomed and needed. I started with German cars 14 yrs ago with a 1984 GTI, and to BMW's from there.

Thank You.
