I have no idea as to what the torque settings are for the bolts securing the underbody protection of my 2019 QE Sport.
Shortly after purchase, I had 3mm steel aftermarket (Boo's) protection fitted to the car. Given the extra weight, should these settings (whatever they be) be increased? (or decreased?)
I'm about to send the car off for it's 12 month/15K service and am feeling pretty wary about 'technicians' at the dealership stripping threads with their rattle guns, so I thought I might make it simple and remove the protection for them beforehand.
Upon re-installation, is there advice please as to what torque settings I should use? The same as the original, or something else?
Novice as I am, I'm becoming more and more anal with this stuff - sorry 'bout that. I'm probably subconsciously looking for an excuse to 'play' with my shiny new torque wrench.
Thank you . . . feelin' tight . . .
