The recommended lug nut torque for an Audi Q7 is 160 newton meters (Nm), which is equivalent to 120 foot-pounds (ft-lb). This applies to all models of the Q7, regardless of the year or trim level.
It is important to use the correct torque when tightening your lug nuts, as over-tightening can damage the wheels or lug bolts, while under-tightening can cause the wheels to come loose.
Here are some tips for torquing your lug nuts:
- Use a torque wrench that is in good condition and has been calibrated recently.
- Make sure the wheel is clean and free of dirt or debris.
- Tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern, starting with the nut opposite the valve stem.
- Tighten each nut to the specified torque in two or three passes.
- Double-check all of the lug nuts to make sure they are all tight to the correct torque.
If you are not comfortable torquing your lug nuts yourself, you can take your car to a qualified mechanic to have it done for you.
