Torque settings on struts anyone?

I am fitting a front strut brace on my e92 335d at the weekend. Does anyone know the torque setting on the bolts on top of the struts?

Precision.

Yes. BMW demands a higher standard, and will perform to spec if, and only if, standards are adhered to!

The correct spec is: 25.07 ft lb

Darn! I'd better rush outside and make sure mine are tightened by that extra 0.07!
