Title: Oil drain plug tourqe
Post by: Silver duck on October 09, 2012, 05:11:30 PM
Going to change my oil on a 2007 s4r test monster the service manual says 42 nm for the torque of the oil drain plug.  Is this right.
Thanks

Appears so:
Oil drain plug  M22x1.5  42  (NOTE:  If  your drain plug uses a 5mm hex the torque is 20nm) 
Lower sump oil drain plug  M12x1.50  20

So big plug - 42
Little plug - 20
