Good Afternoon,
I'm just changing the front spring on my TDI 75 , and being as there is no hynes manual ; I thought I best to check here for some torque settings as I replace the items. If you read this and somebody has already replied - please either agree with them or suggest different settings - general consensus. lb/f n/m or even words – ‘finger tight’
Start in reverse order - as I put things back together
1) Nut which holds the spring into the shocker top mount (before putting back under wheel arch)
2 Three bolts which hold the shocker mount under the bonnet
3) bolt which holds the shocker base - to the wheel assembly
4) track rod end
5) Drop link
6) brake callipers
7) any other that I forgot
cheers in anticipation
