35is Lug Nut Torque Specs

Post by Marcoose » Fri Apr 12, 2024 2:57 am

All, could you please point me to or put a link to the BMW shop manual with the lug nut torque specs, specifically for the 35is ?

I need the page. Not written down.

First correct answer gets an adorable hedgehog. Word is them little critters are all the rage in England. :P

First why do you call it a lug nut? I don't know the actual answer, but if it's any help it may probably be the same as any other BMW wheel bolt that has the same thread, thus if it's M12 x 1.25 then 120 Nm and if M14 x 1.25 then 140 Nm.

Please don't send the hedgehog by airmail :thumbsup:

As Marcoose is in the USA, I think he will need the value in 'old money'. I can't imagine they have dual torque wrenches, we know they are easily confused by modern measurements. :D

88.5 ft-lbs. :thumbsup:

BTW I don't want a hedgehog....flea-ridden things.
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

F31 320i. Good car.
E89 20i Now fully dried
Z3 'free litre'. Project and a half. Complicated!
Mazda3 sold
Tatty old R56 Mini Cooper. Money pit!

It turns out my torque wrench is bilingual, and thanks to my upbringing in the continent, I’m fluent in new money stuff. And I even know a pom-pom when I see it. I’m as smart as they come.
