September 5th, 2018 08:28 PM #42The torque specs are all in the manual. With all my different cars through the years, the manufacturers have always included the torque specs in the manual. All we have to do is read it. Admittedly, I have made the mistake of greasing the nuts before, since this was what was taught to me by my father. Now I know better.
There were two memorable instances i recall involving tire mechanics. One was when I bought tires from Tire Center. They used a pneumatic wrench. When I got home, I wanted to loosen it so that I can torque. It was so tight that I had to get the help of our fat househelp to step on the wrench & jump on it. Imagine doing it on 16 lug nuts. The other was when I suffered a flat & had it fixed in your friendly sidewalk vulcaniziing shop. When he loosened it, he felt that the nuts were too loose. Sanay kasi gumamit ng extension bar to tighten the nuts.

when you use lube the friction lessens. so if you use the same torque value the actual pulling force on the lug stud increases
