Torque is not the type of bolt but a type of wrench used to tighten bolts. A torque wrench will tell you how tight a bolt is tightened like 60lb of torque or tighten to 80lb of torque so a bolt will be tight enough to stay in but not too tight that you strip the bolt.

How does a click type torque wrench work?

Well I'm not sure if you want the complete mechanical end of things... But i know some...The wrench will have usually a turn type of an adjuster on the handle specifying torque amount. It works as a ratchet wrench until you hit the specified torque and you'll feel and also hear the wrench head and handle make a loud click when you hit that desired setting."If you keep trying to ratchet the wrench will net let you go anymore it will just keep clicking until you change the torque amount up on the dial"------------------------------------------------------------------------That last statement is false- The wrench will continue to tighten the bolt/nut after it clicks. It will only click once which is when the tension 'Pawl' flicks to the side as the side tension out muscles the spring tension (torque setting you have set). Once it has flicked to the side it cannot go any further so will continue to tighten if you go past that point. If you ratchet back and have another go that is different but once you hear the click do not continue in the direction of tightening. It is very different to how say your 24V cordless drill would work.

Is it necessary to use a torque wrench to repair a car?

There are differences in torque wrenches. One among the wrenches is the click-type torque wrench. It is an easy to handle kit. While applying the wrench and when the torque reaches the desired limit, the device automatically"clicks". This wrench could help you with providing the right amount of torque to be applied. Twisting of torque marks the desired torque to be applied.
