- 2016 VW GSW Manual
Just did the 034 upper an lower dog bone. The instructions I found online (I think they were for Audi A3, but I figured same platform) specified 100 NM plus a 90 degree turn for the big bolt.
this is ridiculously tight. Got it to the specified torque setting, when doing the extra turn made it to about 60 degrees and snapped the socket off!
Was this too tight, and can it cause problems? Right now the car feels super tight, rides really rough on bad pavement, but from posts I’ve read here that’s normal for the first few hundred miles.
