I have not been able to find my copy of the service manuel for my 06 xb12x.

Can someone look up the torque values for the following and post them?

Front rotor mounting bolts
rear rotor mounting bolts
rear pulley mounting bolts
Oil drain plug
Primary drain plug

Thanks

Drain plug(s) spec is 30lb/ft; but don't torque them more than 15lb/ft.
Also, use a new o'ring and the recommended thread sealant too.

DO NOT torque either of your drain plugs to 30 ft/lb. Or anything close to it. You will strip the female threads as many here have done.
