    I just did the 5k oil change and was surpised to find that there are no torque specifiications for the oil draing plug or lugnuts (at least that I could see) in the owner's manual. Anybody know what I should torque these to?

    Thanks

    drain: 14ish although DH doesn't typically use a torque wrench on oil drain plugs at the shop... :) don't jam it on there and don't leave it loose, basically.
