You need to repair vehicles in the Battlefield 6 if you want to keep jeeps, tanks, jets and helicopters going. They can be powerful but are often heavily targeted as a result and end up taking loads of damage. However, keeping something like a tank working on the frontline can make all the difference in a match.

Strategy aside, you don't want anything you might be sitting into explode. Especially if you've gone to the effort of working out how to get Jets and Helicopters in Battlefield 6. So, help keep all those motors running, here's how to repair vehicles in BF6 and what you need to fix things.

How do you repair vehicles in Battlefield 6?

Battlefield 6 Engineer class perks

Fixing turrets and vehicles in Battlefield 6 requires a Repair Tool, a blowtorch gadget specific to the Engineer Class. None of the other Battlefield 6 classes has one, as the Repair Tool is the Engineer's signature gadget - it's basically almost the entire point of choosing them in the first place.

To use the Repair Tool in BF6 approach any vehicle or equipment that can be repaired, equip it and press the fire button when close enough to slowly refill the vehicle's health. You can even repair vehicles while inside them with a slightly different button prompt shown in the right (3 on PC) in Battlefield 6.

On top of this, as an Engineer your power to fix things can be improved with an Active Ability, called "Power Repair", which improves the Repair Tool's efficiency by 50% for 10 seconds. With this activated it's actively quite difficult for enemies to damage vehicles faster than you can fix them, though rockets and tanks can certainly still outpace your efforts.

Using the repair tool on an enemy vehicle will damage it instead but the Engineer is better suited to using any of their uniquely explosive Battlefield 6 weapons, which are specifically equipped with explosive payloads especially made to ruin vehicles. You'll also help your team a lot if you learn how to spot in Battlefield 6 to tag troublesome enemy armor.

You can (sort of) repair your teammates too by bringing them back from the dead with a Battlefield 6 revive.

Guides Editor, GamesRadar+

Joel Franey is a writer, journalist, podcaster and Very Tired Man with a BA from Brunel University, a Masters from Sussex University and a decade working in games journalism, often focused on guides coverage but also in reviews, features and news. His love of games is strongest when it comes to groundbreaking narratives like Disco Elysium, UnderTale and Baldur's Gate 3, as well as innovative or refined gameplay experiences like XCOM, Sifu, Arkham Asylum or Slay the Spire. He is a firm believer that the vast majority of games would be improved by adding a grappling hook, and if they already have one, they should probably add another just to be safe. You can find old work of his at Eurogamer, Gfinity, USgamer, SFX Magazine, RPS, Dicebreaker, VG247, and more.
