Default All torque spec for my car !

im so tired of every te i go to do some work on my car, i have to search for hours to find the torque specs on each part. luckily i find alot of it here. but for instance, the 4 Allen Head bolts holding the hub assembly.

Would I get anywhere calling lexus , would they direct me to someone who would answer that? do I call a dealership and ask them? i just need a quicker way of getting this info as things come up ...

You probably won't need written specs for the lug-nuts holding the wheels on. Most regular cars and crossovers need about 75-80 ft-lbs. And use a torque-wrench if you have one. Hand-tightening is often just guesswork, and air-guns can use too much pressure and over-tighten the lugs, causing thread-damage and/or warping the brake rotors.

Just one of many torque-specs, and one you sometimes use.
