'23 G70 2.0 SP Brake Question

[DrDover]

I'm getting ready to replace the front brakes and would like to know the proper torque for the caliper and bracket.
I've searched every brake thread I could find and still no luck.
Non-Brembo.

This is the Kia manual but the brakes are the same, you can scroll through for most repair items. Be sure not to click on those "load ptf" "install drivers" type links.
And the torque for those 2 caliper bolts is 57.9 - 72.3 lb·ft

Non-Brembo.

Caliper bracket bolts: 125 foot-pounds.

Caliper bolts: 26 foot-pounds.

Use a good torque wrench and some anti-seize on the slider pins.

Where did you get that info? Much higher than what the manual lists.
Brembos are a bit higher, like 85 ft lbs. For the floating calipers it lists 58 to 72 ft lbs.

You're right, my mistake. I was going off a generic guide. Always follow the manual for your specific car. Thanks for the correction.
