Title: Torque settings
Post by: Bad Dog on December 3, 2020, 12:04
Pretty much as per title, is there anywhere on this site that has a list of torque setting for sump bolts, O2 sensors, sub frame to chassis bolts etc ? Tia

I have had a good look around 😊

Torque settings are shown in lots of the diagrams in the workshop guide. You can get hold of it, and lots of other details from https://www.toyota-tech.eu/ (https://www.toyota-tech.eu/).  You need to sign in and pay for access but you can save downloaded items.  For the price of a couple of hours subscription you should be able to grab most of the important stuff.

As an aside, i once asked a neighbour car mechanic if i could use his torque wrench for a job.  When he found out the job (which i cant remember) he said not to bother but just nip it up with pliers till they slipped... Some things need feel not accurate Nm.
