Yes, but what about other cars?
It is in the manual for the disco. 140NM
After I started changing wheels myself on the disco, I also ordered a set of weels for the winter tyres for my wife's CRV. The Honda manual doesn't give any info about the torque to be applied. So I gave there as well the 140NM.
Am I doing right?Some people get by
With a little understanding

With a whole lot more
I don�t know
