So 35nm for the brake hose, I did the calibre to the bracket at 35nm as the guide says, but there's nowt about new for old calibre change on re attaching the brake pipe, the bleed nipple is 10nm that's where wear senors locates. I just don't fancy driving the car till I know its at the right torque

25 to 35nm should be fine for the brake pipe.

I had to do mine the pads where all at different thickness the os was not working so the ns was down to 3 mm the other side was 7/8mm, it's been a expensive task I had zero tools least I can tackle the other jobs on the car now.
