Thought This may help a few people

I have gone page by page through the whole of the Bentleys Z3 Service manual, which covers the Z3 Roadster, Z3 Coupe, M Roadster and M Coupe, 1996 to 2002 and extracted all the Torque settings given in the book and listed them on an excel spread sheet. RED for Nm and Blue for Ft/Lbs (there are some In/LBS as well in PURPLE )
Where they were Engine Specific I have added that as well.
Where there is no engine ref then they are the same for all versions. I have also added some info on where they suggest new nut or bolts.

I have tried to upload this but the system does not accept .xls files.

If anyone wants a copy, PM me with your email address and I will send a copy to you.


NOTE> Some of the descriptions may seem odd, but they are the American terminology. I have translated a few but may a missed some :whistle:

I intend to laminated a copy and stick it on the wall in my garage as a reference.guide, (saves getting the book covered in grease =)))


I have only copied this info, so if anyone spots any mistakes, please let me know and I will make sure that the corrections are passed on.
