Wheel nut torque ?

[dafix]

Hi folks,

A basic question but I cannot find the answer in the documentation I have: what is the right torque to tighten the three nuts of a wheel on a DAF46 ? I have read that 100 Nm is the common value for most of the cars, but maybe it is too much. Applying such a torque by using the crank (that is provided under the bonnet) would require a considerable force !

I don't have a manual for a 46, but my 55 and 66 manuals say 58 to 65 lb ft (which would be 78 to 88 Nm).

Thank you, mtjm ! I think it's probably OK to use these values for y 46.
