    Default kia picanto front strut nut torque

    Hi im wondering if anyone can help me out here I got the gds from ebay for the workshop manual and cant find anything in it for the torque of the front strut nut. Ideally the torque for both nuts would be ideal more worried about the one thats holding the bearing and insulator in at the moment though.

    All the questions should start from what car, what year, what engine is what fuel. What are the symptoms of the problem. Only then is what you know, what fault code, live data, what you have done.
