Best get the details from a dealer or reputable mechanic as some engines are set to a torque setting while others are set to a turn angle requiring an angle gauge on the bolts
@Kenneth Ella: In my Peugeot 206 1.4 (TU engine series), tightening the thermostat housing bolts with a torque 20 nm was the breaking of the thread in the engine head. I think, correct torque is about 10 nm (8-12 nm).
Tightening torque for the hub nut is 200Nm and the road wheels are 85Nm
NOTE:
The rear wheel bearings are remowned on these cars for sticking to the
stub axle quite badly, and often have to be forced off using a slide
hammer on the drum, it is quite common to end up damaging the wheel
bearing, so be prepared to replace this as well in this event
