Post Oil Drain Plug

I am trying to locate the torque wrench setting for the 2 oil drain plugs. Thank you for the information. Vale911

Per the factory repair manuals:

Crankcase drain plug: 52 ft lb (70 Nm)

Thermostat housing (the plug near the passenger side rear wheel): 48 ft lb (65 Nm)

Oil filter console (inside the rear wheel well): 23 ft lb (31 Nm)

I never take off the oil filter console plug (used to drain the oil filter) b/c it requires removal of the passenger rear wheel. Instead, I puncture a small hole in the filter, which drains most of the oil out.
