Hello,

On the F30, there is a screw with a clamp on the tie rod. This bolt and clamp can be loosened in order to allow for wheel alignment by twisting the tie rod. Conversely, this bolt and clamp can be tightened in order to ensure that the tie rod does not move and does not "adjust" while driving.

Does anyone here know what torque must be applied to that bolt?

For future reference, this stuff is really easy to google, and you'll get your answer much faster.

I googled "f30 tie rod torque". First link.
