Frequently asked questions
What is the wheel lug torque for a Toyota Sequoia?
It is 83 to 97 lbf·ft (112–132 N·m) depending on model year. For 2008–2022 the figure is 97 lbf·ft (132 N·m / 13.5 kgf·m).
Did the Sequoia torque specification change between model years?
The Sequoia torque specification changed over its production run: 83 lbf·ft applies to 2001–2007, while 97 lbf·ft applies to 2008–2022. Using the wrong generation's figure can under- or over-tighten the wheel — match your model year exactly.
Should I grease the wheel studs on a Sequoia?
Torque figures apply to clean, dry threads. Do not grease, oil or anti-seize the studs unless the manufacturer explicitly calls for it — lubricant can raise clamping force well beyond the target and stretch or snap a stud.
In what order should I tighten the wheel fasteners on a Sequoia?
Tighten in a star (criss-cross) pattern in two or three passes, finishing with a calibrated torque wrench at the figure for your year, with the wheel on the ground. Re-check after 50–100 miles.
