Mercedes-Benz EQS lug nut torque by build date
Mercedes-Benz lists its owner’s manuals by the date the car was built, not by model year, so they’re listed that way here: each applies to cars built from the date shown. The month and year yours was built are on the label in the driver’s door frame. Read on Mercedes-Benz’s own site on October 23, 2026.
How to tighten them
- Clean any dirt or rust off the bolts and the wheel’s mounting face. Don’t oil them unless the manual says to.
- Thread every bolt in by hand until it seats against the wheel.
- Lower the vehicle so the tire takes its weight, and set a torque wrench to 111 lb-ft (150 N·m).
- Tighten the bolts in a star pattern, going around two or three times, until the wrench clicks on every bolt.
- Check the torque again after a short drive if your manual says to.
What the Mercedes-Benz manual adds
- Tighten the wheel bolts evenly in a diagonal pattern in the order indicated 1 to 5 with an initial maximum force of 59 lb-ft (80 Nm).

Questions
What is the lug nut torque on a Mercedes-Benz EQS?
111 lb-ft (150 N·m), as printed in Mercedes-Benz’s owner’s manuals (built 2021–2026).
Can I use an impact wrench?
Not to finish. An impact wrench can’t set a torque and easily overshoots it, which stretches studs. Run the nuts down by hand or lightly, then finish with a torque wrench in a star pattern.
Should I oil the wheel bolts?
Not unless the manual says so. Torque values assume clean, dry threads; oil lets the same torque stretch the bolt further. Some manuals, Kia’s and Mazda’s among them, say to keep oil and grease off wheel nuts and bolts altogether.
