2003~2006 Sorento Crankshaft Bolt (3.5L) Torque Guidelines
REVISED PROCEDURE, (supersedes all published articles)
KMA has received some questions regarding the proper torquing of the Crankshaft Pulley Bolt. The bolt and washer should be replaced every time the
bolt and washer are removed and SHOULD NOT BE RE-USED. This bolt and washer must be torqued to 130 lbs. ft. (176 Nm) by hand using a properly
calibrated torque wrench. The flywheel must be held stationary while the bolt is being torqued. Under NO circumstances should the bolt be installed
using an air impact gun!
Proper torquing is essential for long term durability and increased customer satisfaction.
