A friend of mine's daughter has a 2005 G6 coupe. He wants me to do the front & rear brakes on this car but I've never done the ones on a G6. I have done the ones on a 98 Grand Prix before. Can anyone tell me what the torque specs are for the caliper bolts? What else do I need to look out for or do special on these brakes?. Thanks for any help you can give.

Lampoon,
Thanks for the info. I do have the Borg tool so I'm good there. I guess I'll just tighten the bolt down until it feels tight enough unless I can find the torque specs somewhere. Does anyone have a service manual for this car that might have this info in it? Thanks again.

Ok. Page 5-105.
They are self retaining fasteners that DO NOT require thread locking compounds.
The brake caliper mounting bracket bolts are tightened to 115 N-m (85 lb ft).

Now I have a question for you!

WHO'S UR BUDDY???

Thanks for the info and YOU ARE! I'm sure I will have some more questions before it is all over.
