Sep 2011 at 22:29 Hi, I have checked out the maintenance guides but can't find figures to fit the V6 clutch.... Can anyone give me the numbers for this? I just need the torque for the pressure plate to flywheel. Thanks....

Thanks TB, I did forget one, the prop to gearbox....
On the Haynes book, I often wondered where they get their numbers from??? I work in engineering and do some testing that involves fixing torques, this includes applying a specific torque to a set of bolt, screws, nut or any combination of them, perform a test and check how the fixings are getting on.
We test move-on torque, this is always higher.
And back-off torque, this is always lower....
So, knowing this and not knowing how Haynes get their figures?????????
