Ok so got the r32 manual so thanks for the advice

 

few questions:

 

1. why is the torque in range such as 85-110? That is a huge difference 

 

2.you can't put a torque meter on the flange from gearbox so i made it as tight as I could with spanner. Book says torque should be 80 nmwhich seems very high for that bolt and nut

 

 3. Subframe torque was 110nm , lock is not nylon so you don't need to dispose of it, re use? I used medium strength loctile on it

Torque range because it clearly doesn't matter so much where it ends up.

I don't understand "flange from the gearbox". Do you mean the input flange on the diff at the back end of the tailshaft? Most people just do bolts like that up as tight as they can manage with a regular ring spanner and say "click".

I always just re-use subframe fasteners. Shit never comes off.
