Hi there, I'm new to the forum and am just looking for the correct procedure for re torquing the front wheel hub bolt after replacement. I know when I removed it with my 1/2' impact it sure took some power, it must be torqued well over 200lbs??
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
No this one

If it's like the pre-facelift (2010-12) models (and I'm pretty sure it is) you torque the axle nut to 88 foot/pounds (120Nm) and then rotate it another 90 degrees.
You mean the blue bolt, right?
For my 2014, probably the same as your 2015:
Stage 1 - 160Nm
Stage 2 - loosen (Just enough to take off the tension, maybe 1/4 turn)
Stage 3 - 120Nm
Stage 4 - 90 degrees
