Hi, I have just finished replacing the brake shoes in the brake drum on
my peugeot 205 1.8 diesel. I need to find out what the torque setting
is for the rear hub nut, does anyone know what it is or where I could
find this information, does'nt have it in the Haynes manual, just says
"tighten the nut to specified torque". Cheers any info much appreciated.

It should be given at the front of the brakes section. It's one of the
idiosyncrasies of Haynes manuals to not put the torque wrench settings
in the description.

Indeed it is.

If it`s a 1987 to 1996 auto data says it`s 215nm !

Hope this helps !
