The same on a 2.2.....which imo is far too tight.....what do the rest of you think?

I reckon about 18Nm is about right  :-/

Does seem a bit tight. I cant get at them anyway because I dont have an extension bar long/short enough to reach properly! Another tool required............ :(

GeffD said they sometime come off by themselves.... so if you want them to stay put for the next 80k or 40k then you better torque them up... but yes I did notice when doing them up that it sort of feels 'do I really want to do that?'...
