I checked my DIY found that I wrote "xx" for the torque spec. I guess I planned on consulting the Bently manual to fill in the blanks and never fixed the citation.

I did not use loctite on the flywheel bolts.

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
