Just flushed my coolant and bled it etc per BMW tis. I drove it around and everything seems fine except when I tightened my coolant hose connecting to the water pump I was afraid to over tighten it (gave it about as much torque as my charge pipe hose)

Should I torque it down more? The tech manual didn’t say how tight it needs to be and it’s the first time I’ve performed a coolant flush, just wanna be on the safe side.

Well we don't know how tight it is now, so nobody here could begin to tell you if it should be tightened more.

Tighten it enough so that it doesn't leak. There's no point in going tighter.
