Can someone give me the torque specs for the upper timing chain guide and the valve cover.

2009 Mini Cooper base automatic non turbo

Please?

 

 

Thank you.

The pic of that valve cover looks different than mine but I'd imagine those torque specs are the same. Matches what somebody else said.

I've been looking at the Bently manual. Since my daughter loves this car, I'll be having one pretty soon.

Are retailers that sell it any cheaper than the bentlypublishing website?

 

I bought it on Wally World's website for less than a $100, free 2 day shipping too. Might want to check there.

 

Is it this one?

From the manual here is the spec

 

Timing chain guide torque spec from the manual

 

So it's actually 20nm.

I see that from the book there.

I've also heard 8nm and 9 nm.

So I'll go with 20. I don't want that coming loose.

 

Yes sir! That is it indeed. I found one a bit cheaper at parts geek, but seeing as I have a discount at WM, it saved me a few bucks if you factor in the shipping/tax costs.
