Turbo oil feed banjo bolt torque?

Can anyone advise the torque for the two banjo connections for the turbo oil feed pipe? I don't want to snap them! Thanks.

Are you talking about the bolts at the top of the oil cooler radiator? The service manual calls for new "dowty" sealing washers and 27 Nm.

Thanks Matt, not the oil cooler (but I will add these values to my list I have on the wall in the garage!) , but those holding the feed pipe to the turbo and at the bottom of the feed pipe where it connects to the front of the engine block.

Have a look here: https://www.hoseandfittings.com/banjo-torque/

There's a metric table including Steel Banjo bolts with Copper Washers, with adjustments for Stainless or Brass. Metric figures are in Newton Metres.
