Pressure plate n box torque settings?

[rob_sri]

Does anyone know what torque settings should be used on the pressure plate and box bell housing?

I'm fitting my new clutch tomorrow before my box goes off to agency

Any box related torque figures you can think of will be useful

Anyone

For anyone searching and finding this thread there is a guide here on clutch removal and refitting

20nm on pressure plate and 44 on bell housing by the look of it?

Can someone confirm this is correct

no need to torque the bell housing, QFT is fine, pressure plate is 25nm from memory

fred... the s**tty blue alignment tool that came with the valeo kit just doesnt really fit or hold anything in place.. doesnt seem to want to lock in like i expected.. ive centered it by eye it looks okay but i dont trust it.. should i get an aftermarket tool for it and re do it?

also when redoing the bolts on the flywheel it moved round slightly as i torqued it..didnt lock it off properly.. does this matter :/ ?

 

[Fred@BTM]

moving the flywheel doesn't matter, the alingment tool is there as a guide, once the pressure plate is bolted up the alingment tool should fit in and spin easily and also "look" straight, i normally check them by eye after

ah thats awesome... just what I wanted to hear.. it looked straight... i nipped up the bolts very slightly and moved it into line then torqued them up.. il copy your response into my other thread for anyone using the search function on that too..

thanks fred!!!!
