i checked the bentley i have which only goes up to 2005 which did not say a specific torque for these bolts in its sump plate section, but, in its generic torque guide in the begining of the book it says for those fasteners, 10nm...so i guess 10 newton meters = 7 foot #'s...?

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Actually, at my age, I need them more than ever. I have several full sets of Porsche service manuals (Boxster, 996/997, Turbo cars, 993, all the Bentley's, etc.), plus I subscribe to a couple of online services, including Porsche's.
