Another thing worth mentioning is to work them down in gradual stages, you don't need to fly in and do the first one to the relevant torque as you can potentially snap/damage the cam. Take your time and work in nice small increments. ;)

For the XE they are 20nm.

Do them as you would a head, work in a circular motion and you can't go too far wrong.

EDIT: The 2 small nuts are 10nm.

is there a torque setting for tightening cam caps and also is there a sequence to tighten them in?
