Hi There,
I have the sump bolts at 25 Nm, the sump baffle bolts at 12Nm and the sump plug at 25 Nm, sump rear access plugs at 12Nm and the sump to rear cover bolts at 12Nm, hope that helps.

remember to nip them up a bit at a time to keep it on square as you tighten.

Please don't use a NM torque wrench unless you know what Foot Pound (lbs ft)that equals to!
