Hi guys/gals

Does some kind person know the correct torque setting for the two bolts holding the flange housing that the lambda sensor screws into .

whoever was there before me used nyloc nuts ..... On an exhaust ????

Cheers folks

Haynes manual says 20 Nm. Or 44 for screw-on sensors.

Thanks man

is that not the actual lambda sensor setting . I am wondering about the two bolts that hold the flange . The flange that the lambda is screwed onto .

I am wondering did the last guy at it redden the flange to get the sensor out and warp it . Ill have a new gasket tuesday so that will tell a lot .

Cheers again man

What year, what engine?

Asking because I think you probably don't have standard exhaust - older engines had only one lambda with flange on it, 2 nuts (M6 or M8, don't remember), newer ones have bolt-on lambda, no nuts required.
