I am worried that the spec is wrong... seems a little high. Has anyone used this torque spec on the plugs?

What? 80NM :shock:

That must be wrong. Like the 50NM for the sump drain plug.

When you see something that looks like a misprint, use common sense. That must be inch pounds instead and NM was added for it was in the wrong collum.
