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

Could anyone offer some advice as to the thread lock and torque settings for the splined rim screws on the split rim wheels. I've stripped mine ready to paint, black centres with polished rims and I'm getting close to rebuilding, should have asked before stripping but I just had a moment of blind enthusiasm.
