Does anyone know the proper torque values for reinstalling the IMS flange (the 3 bolts that hold the flange on and the center nut)?

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.

The torque is 10 nm (7 ft-lb) on those bolts.

Thanks. And for the center nut? Pelicans says 24 ft/lb (but it is not clear to me if that is for the original flange and center bolt or for the LN kit which has a stronger center bolt), elsewhere I saw 12 nm. Provisionally I torqued to about 15 ft/lb which seems about right as long as the original bolt is not too fragile.
