Lower oil pan bolts torque
W210 with M112. Could someone please tell me the torque spec for the lower oil pan bolts from the WIS (or other reliable sources)? Surprisingly, I cannot find definitive answer on the web...

Thank you for that @bbirdwell. I assume you are suggesting 10Nm should work for the M112 as well even though the diagram is not of the M112/M113, correct? I am really surprised how difficult it is to find the proper torque setting for this job, especially knowing the high fail rate of the oil level sensors...

Oil pan bolts are usually 6mm thread diameter. 10 Nm equates to 7 ft-lbs.
