I am currently half way through the rear subframe bushes on my X5 E53 and having replaced the bushes want to torque up the main bolts, but my copy of TIS is not installed on my new PC yet, so can someone have a look for me and let me know the setting asap. Pretty please
Cheers
Jay

Perfect thanks. All done and dusted and drives sooo much better now and mine were not even that bad compared to some I have seen. The front pair of bushes were much worse than the rear pair.
Another job done before it was causing other problems. Checked out the infamous rear brake pipes and although still ok are starting to show signs of corrosion, so thats the next job on the list, along with new discs and pads and a fluid change.

Genuine. Managed to get some cheap so it made sense and I knew the ride would be good.
