V40d sump bolts torque

[Irvyboy24]

Hi there, I have a 2002 V40d with the Renault engine, I'm going to change my sump gasket as the current one leaks slightly but was wondering if anyone know what torque the bolts on the sump should be retightened to and if there's a tightening sequence?

Any help would be appreciated

There you go ,
Are you sure the sump is leaking? It uses a rubber sealing strip . Oil mist runs down from the throttle body and can look like a sump leak .

Hi, ye I'm pretty sure, it's seeping out pretty much right around the edge of the gasket and nothing above it.
