If this is the one that bolts in to the transmission mount, then...

5 -  Bolt
  Always replace
  Tighten to 110 Nm (81 ft lb) plus 1/4-turn (90)

>From Bentley - I think this is the one you want.

Hey guys.  I need some quick help.  Does anybody know what the proper torque
values are for the bolt that goes through the bushing on the inner part of
the control arm and bolts upwards.  I was just changing my oil and noticed
that when my mechanic, maybe at this point ex-mechanic, replaced the control
arm bushing they forgot to tighten up the control arm bolts!?!? Also, is
there a nut somewhere like there is in the 200?  I can't see how there could
be given the arrangement of the car but I could be missing something.  A
Bentley page with the suspension picture would be most helpful!  Thanks!!
