Anyone knows the torque spec for the flywheel to crankshaft bolts for #21212283820? I found this indicating an M62 bolt that requires 105Nm (77.4 Lb FT) but not quite sure.

That's correct the BMW TIS says the torque is 11 22 1AZ which in your link is 105NM. Note the text with the spec says the screw threads must be oiled when achieving this torque, something you don't see too often on this car. Added to thread.

Thanks for the awesome thread and tip!

Can you also help with the numbers for clutch bolts and other stuff needed for clutch work? Part number is 21212284034.

I think there is an error as the first post says to tighten the oil sensor unit to 18Nm. That is way too tight according to ISTA.

Cheers,

Good catch, correction made.

are you able to get torque specs and sequence for the s65 motor, like the bedplate and so on? that would help me a ton i would really appreciate it

Anyone know the toque values for the rear sway bar end links (stabilizer)?

Figured they might be the same as the front, but wouldn't hurt to ask, thanks.
