rear suspension bolt torque

Post by kurgan »

Long story short, I sheared one of the upper M8 bolts when removing shocks to replace the bumper stops. Luckily managed to get the broken bolt out and I'm going to gently re tap the threads. I would like to know the Nm torque value of these upper 10.9 grade bolts (and the lower bolt) please. It seems the later passats had 10mm bolts fitted, which is not surprising I guess. Thanks in advance.
