15 foot pounds. Torque the rear ones first.

Seems to be a common issue.

Yes I agree. It's the second time I have heard of this and the first time the person had removed the cross brace and wasn't sure of the torque value.

Throw a little blue Loctite on there.

I know those are the correct numbers but I wonder if it might be a type in the manual. 15'lb sure seems low to me for that steel bolt. Would make sense if aluminum.

I went over all the bolts with a torque wrench, all were loose. Car sounds tight again..
