Tightening Torque explained

[colinsulby]

Hello all,

I was just looking through the B9 service manual as I am going to attempt repair of my 5th gear problem myself.

Can someone explain what the French tightening torques mean in standard NM?

Have a look at this thread: https://www.berlingoforum.com/thread-19908.html
I had the same question. Basically, 1da.Nm = 1m.daN = 10Nm
So, your 6,5 daNm == 65Nm
