Hi folks
I'm about to do the rear bearing on my wife's Seat Ibiza 2013 ,1.4 Toca 84bhp (drum brakes)
Does anyone know for sure the torque settings for this?
I've searched 'google' and Youtube and i've seen all different settings, ie 50Nm +30 degrees , 50Nm + 45 degrees , and a couple including an Autodoc video saying 175 Nm .
Can anyone help on this ?
Thanks.

Rear hub on my system is showing 70 Nm +30 degrees, which prob won't be far off the 175 NM to be fair.

The 50 + degrees are showing as the torque for the front hubs on my system.

The rear hub/bearing centre nut which takes a 30mm socket.

Thanks for that , as just checked and my torque wrench from the 70's, and old Britool wrench only goes up to 150Nm, so i'll do the 70Nm+30 degrees.
