red astra Posted July 26 Posted July 26 Hi there, Can anyone tell me the tightening torque for the driveshaft nut on an astra j hatchback 1.6 P10. Have a torque wrench that goes up to 210nm but fear this is not enough and I may have to buy another which could be costly and would only be used once. Is there any method to avoid this. Don't know anyone that has one. Quote
AndyR Posted August 4 Posted August 4 Hi there Red Astra, I have just been online and found that you need to set it to 250Nm, or 185 ft.-lbs. I did my wifes Peugeot last year, and as my torque wrench didn't go high enough, I nipped it up as tight as the air gun would go, and then rolled down to my local tyre garage and got them to check for me. Luckily I was spot on. Hope this is helpful. Quote
