In the haynes manual it says that the lower damper bolt on a Renault clio mk2 phase 2 should be tightened to 105nm.
Now i set my torque wrench to this and managed to snap the bolt. When i went to re-order the bolt from renault a mechanic said that no wonder it broke as thats a higher figure than for even a roadwheel nut which is considerably thicker.
So basically this is aimed at traders and people in the know, if 105nm is too much then what do you tighten the bolts to?
Thanks in advance.
