Unhappy Water Pump Bolt Torque

Does anyone know what the torque values should be on the bolts that clamp the water pump to the engine block?

I believe it's 18ft lbs - someone else will prob chime in to confirm. I know the service CD has the wrong values in it.

I do believe you are exactly correct (25nm / 18ft/lbs)

18lbs-ft. If you use the 35 lbs-ft you will snap the bolt head right off. I fouynd out the hard way. Make sure you get the right size bolts in the right spot.
