Had a google around but not sure:
Is 1.5 daNm = 15Nm for torque units when tightening bolts?
Trust Peugeot to make things complicated.
Cheers.

Thanks.
In this case, isn't 15Nm quite a low torque for the 6 x clutch plate mounting bolts? Or are the pegs supposed to take the turning power from the flywheel to the plate?

Yep.
Just that garages around here ram them in with an air-gun until rock solid.
However I have a feeling and have now heard they must be torqued evenly as specified by the manufacturer (15Nm for 1.4i) and rely on the pegs for power transmition to the plate, not the bolts. ?  ?

power is transmitted through the pegs (dowels) not the bolts

Many thanks for reply.
So that info is correct and raming the bolts to hold the plate on is not really how it's meant to work.
15Nm sounds low, will the bolts make the plate sit properly on the flywheel
or is it acceptable to have a minimal gap, or.. ?
