A good snug fit, as I don't know if there is an actual torque setting for a small bolt/screw.

Suggestion

They can only be small bolts so simply tighten until you can't tighten any more by one hand.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have a small squeak coming from my front end. At first I thought it was some kind of suspension issue but it is coming from the middle of the car. After doing some research here and at Pelican Parts it seems that this noise is probably coming from the frunk latch. That makes sense since it is coming from the center of the car and not from where the suspension actually is, the wheels. The solution is "retorque the frunk latch". Okay, how do I do that? I assume it is the bottom latch not the fixed top piece. And anyone know what the proper torque setting is for that? Thanks.

POST 2Original post

They can only be small bolts so simply tighten until you can't tighten any more by one hand. A good snug fit, as I don't know if there is an actual torque setting for a small bolt/screw. Then put grease on both parts and you should be 'good to go'.
