nigev11 Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 hey all a long time ago, i learned the value of carefully tightening critical bolts to the correct torque values. the manual has a list of them, but I cant find specs for the main frame/engine bolts, which to me would both suffer a lot of vibration and potentially upset handling and vibes if wrong. Anyone know what the values for these bolts and nuts should be? nigev11
raz Posted September 5, 2010 Posted September 5, 2010 My WHB says 80 Nm for the ones that goes into the timing chest. I use the same torque for the smaller ones, subframe-to-mainframe, because they are not seated in alu. Seems to work fine. My book has some of the specs (like this 80 Nm one) on the page that describes the part in question, instead of listing it on the torque spec page. Maybe the V11 manual is the same?

Raz cheers mate, much appreciated! The torque wrench is at the ready with anew set of bits; I'm off to the shed
