Torque Spec?

Anybody happen to know what the lug net spec is for a 2005 RL? Unless I am blind, its not in either the owners manual or the factory shop manual.

In the 2006 OM, page 401 under the section for changing the spare tire.

Here are a couple of paragraphs so that you can try to find it in the 2005 manual.


13. Tighten the wheel nuts securely in
the same crisscross pattern. Have
the wheel nut torque checked at
the nearest automotive service
facility.
Tighten the wheel nuts to:
94 lbf·ft (127 N·m , 13 kgf·m)

14. Place the flat tire face down in the
spare tire well.
Wrap the spacer cone and spare
tire wing bolt with cloth or paper,
and store them in the spare tire
well.

Awesome thanks! this was my first oil change/tire rotation. Not one of those lugs was under 120#s and they were all different. Over eager tech with torque stix.....

Its in the 05 OM on page 340. I guess Acura thinks you will get a flat before you rotate your tires.
