I've got some oil dripping from my drain bolt. Very minor, but I'm curious what the factory-spec torque on it is, so I can torque the bolt to that and go from there.
Thanks! -------------------- 2019 M2, 2005 S2000, 1997 4Runne

I see them come in all the time leaking, aftermarket gaskets i mean. The Toyota gasket is much better and is still dirt cheap, worth the price difference, I think.
EDIT: It also depends on the dealer, some dealers for some reason may carry aftermarket gaskets. The Toyota gasket looks like its made of aluminum with a blue "paper coating" on either side of it. It looks kinda cheap but it works the best. This post has been edited by silver6gc: Jan 22, 2009 - 8:52 PM -------------------- Trust me, I do this every day |
