[s-cars] Installing a new O2 sensor, is there a torque value?

[Olek]

I used torque wrench, but can not reccomend you a torque value since my
car is no Audi (inser crying icon here).

Use torque wrench, and do not give Audi Gods another chance for a really
bad joke, unless you have a torque wrench with German calibration built in
your arm, like Igor does. ;)

And one more obvious thing - be carefull not to cross thread it.
