The last mechanic I went to torqued these to hell…what are the chances he also tightened my spark plugs this much?

Never again…my other mechanic never overtorqued things this much.

    Unless it involves warranty on something expensive, we just do it ourselves and if we need a CANbus address programmed in, I call them out to do that for the minimum charge. If I do get them to do something, I check it after pretty closely.

    Had a guy out to install a turbo on our 7630; he hadn’t tightened the collar for the oil supply, if you can believe it. I did talk to the service manager about that one, that was pretty egregious. Like really, on a turbo, keeping that oil bearing pressured is probably the only critical thing to watch for.
