E53 Front and rear suspension torque specs

[oldskewel]

Good info on how to torque.

Sounds like my reading of the Bentley is correct, and those numbers listed in post #1 are wrong. Maybe it should be updated if people hope to use this as an accurate reference?

BTW, this is why it is far far better to have all torque values listed in a diagram, so there is no confusion over what bolts are being discussed when they list names and numbers ... exactly the point of the diagram @SpookX5 made. I see he references newtis.info vs. I got the info from Bentley (and also, based on the bolt sizes the higher Bentley numbers make sense, and also nothing snapped so far for me ).
