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.

All are M10 bolts, right? If so, they are all 48ftlb (from Bentley manual).
Thanks. Yes, M10s except for the mount bolts which are M15s. I read somewhere that the mount bolts are 63 ft-lbs... Does that make sense?
M15 means the shank of the bolt is 15mm in diameter. That's not a common size. Are you sure? I know there are M14 and M16 bolts...
Sorry. My confusion. The heads of all the bolts are 15mm. I have no idea what the diameters of the shanks are.
Sounds like M10s then. You can easily verify by measuring the shank diameter of the bolts and they should be 10mm.
You are correct as always! I went through the official Porsche Work Shop Manual and the Spec is 65 nm (48 ftlbs). Thanks again.
Trust but verify
