I always admire blokes who do it right. Every car I've owned the wheels have always been tightened to "urrgghh".............seems to work as it always needs a "Ucuncha" to loosen themsmile

My handbook (p35) states 74lbs/in, which, if my sums are right, is approx.6.2ft/lbs, which seems a bit low to me smile

I've always assumed 74ft/lbs (100nm), which just happens to be similar to quoted figures for my other alloy-wheeled cars.

That's a great way to disguise the "c" word ,specially when women are within earshot.
