Ok, I'm not a scientist......But I did stay at a holiday Inn last night! So I Googled it, your not the only one to question this subject.
Mar 2, 2017 - Posted 01 March 2017 - 09:26 PM. The owner's manual for the 2016 Edge lists 162 lb.ft. as the torque for the wheel lug nuts. That seems kind of high to me. Is that right? I've been around for a while and am use to seeing 100 (plus or minus a little) for most passenger vehicles. Just wondering if this 162 is correct.
Now, Just let me ask this. How large is the lug wrench that your Ford Edge comes with? All new cars come with a lug wrench and a scissor jack? Your car would have to come with a 1/2 breaker bar, and a 225lb man to stand on it. Its prolly a typo, and Ford has been to lazy to correct it. 90ft pounds is about correct for all passenger cars.
What size is the lug nut? 19mm
