Porsche Cayenne lug nut torque

How to tighten them

1. Clean any dirt or rust off the bolts and the wheel’s mounting face. Don’t oil them unless the manual says to.
2. Thread every bolt in by hand until it seats against the wheel.
3. Lower the vehicle so the tire takes its weight, and set a torque wrench to the value for your model year and version in the table above.
4. Tighten the bolts in a star pattern, going around two or three times, until the wrench clicks on every bolt.
5. Check the torque again after a short drive if your manual says to.

What the Porsche manual adds

• Immediately after a wheel change, use a torque wrench to check the prescribed tightening torque of the wheel bolts (160 Nm).
