Subject: Help! - I need the lug bolt torque specs for a 1990 900S


I got new tires and watched the lug bolts being hand tightened at the shop with a torque wrench. Unfortunately, the wrench did not move before it clicked. I thought the bolt had to move at least a little before clicking to ensure the proper torque has been applied. I checked the torque setting at home and some bolts moved at 70 lb/ft and other did not move until I set the torque at 85 lb/ft. I guessed, based on on what Volvo and Toyota uses for lug nuts and alloy wheels, and set the torque at 80 lb/ft for now. I bought the car previously owned and it did not come with an Owner's Manual. Does anyone know the proper torque for a '90 900S? Thanks in advance!
