Every factory figure
Every torque value VW specifies for the platform, beside its tightening stages and condition — cold, warm or re-torque.
Matched to your engine
Each value carries the exact engine codes it applies to, with a full engine-code map so you are never guessing.
Built for the bench
A4 portrait, opens on your phone, tablet or laptop. Green margin for universal values, oxblood for engine-specific.
Context, not just numbers
A year-by-engine availability timeline, a tightening-notation guide and a glossary — so a value always makes sense.
