Hi all,

I've seen some mixed views on several sites regarding the torque setting for wheel nuts and the locking nuts. I know this is where the true experts hang out. Could someone please provide the torque setting in NM for the wheel nuts and locking nuts for a mk 3.5 235/35/R19. Thanks.

I've always used three white knuckles - or shear and back half a turn - and it's been fine.....................

I always torque them, but enjoy the phrase "two grunts and a huff" to describe the appropriate torque. "FT" for subframe bolts and the like.
