tuko Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 If I'm reading you correct, your talking about the Con rods big ends, right? If so, then it's 25 lbf. ft Todd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowie69 Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Hold up....... there are two torque measurements .... depending on machined threads or not.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Hancock Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 My genuine S3 manual only lists 25lbs/ft on 4 pot engines. IIRC 35lbs/ft was the 2ltr diesel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie69 Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I'll dig it out when I can find my Haynes..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigblue110 Posted April 13, 2008 Author Share Posted April 13, 2008 cheers guys, didnt actually get to fit any due to the 'untouched, original engine' having 20thou oversized shells in it and by the looks of the crank id think its due another grind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
