Do you mean the caliper mounting bolts or the lug nuts? Lugs should be 66-81 ft/lbs ... caliper mount bolts 60-70 ft/lbs and actual caliper bolts (holding caliper to caliper mount) 16-23 ft/lbs. These are + or _ a little depending on exact model, but they are common torques
Max is 100 lbs retorque after 100 km.

new rotors and new brake pads ...
...full job would include loaded calipers with all new hardware ..if you pay attention to disassembly you will not need a service manual necessarly..all is logical and straightforward...but you are dealing with safety so be sure you are good before taking a drive ...good luck
SOURCE: Front brakes shudder a fair bit when braking
It seems now a days that everyone loves to turn rotors, the only reason to turn a rotor is if it is running out, what this means is that
it is moving back and forth and not in a straight line. What a brake tec is suppose to do is place a dial caliper on the rotor and spin it and see if it is running out,if it is then it must be turned,as long as the rotor is not under the mfg min width. Any vibration,pulsing,shudder,
would tell me that it needs to be turned, just wanted to explain the reason behind it. Any other questions please post back as everyone is more than happy to help.
