Torque for pan and filter bolts on the 48re
Does anyone know what the pan and filter bolts on the 48re should be torqued to? I'm going to be changing the pan fluid in a week or two and I was just wondering. Thanks.

Moderately snug work for me on the pan bolts. I probably go higher on the filter. It can't hurt anything short of stripping the threads and you'll never know if that thing comes loose in there.

When I did the diffs at 15k, I just snugged the bolts up, since they were breaking at the torque specs anyway. So far they've been good and I'll do that again the next time. I haven't heard of pan/filter bolt problems, so I figured "eh what the hey, it would be nice to know".
