Wheel Torque requirement

[rskardon]

Hi there, planning to take the wheels off tomorrow for a good clean out, do you know the torque rating i should be using to re apply the wheel nuts? couldnt see a figure in the manual,

thanks,

Hand and foot tight is the usual standard just make sure you lube the bolts and face and they will come off easy next time like this.

Thanks, I am looking to get them all the same though, looked around on a few forums and looks like around 120NM is average, I dont want to overtighten as i believe this can bugger the rotors,

Just had a look in our WTDR book and it lists 110nm for the MKV Golf.  HTH

My VW workshop discs says 120Nm

Thanks guys, perhaps 115 is the way to go then,
