I have had to replace my valve stem seals in my IS200 and I'm now putting it back together, however I can't seem to find any torque specs for the camshaft bearing caps and was wondering if anyone could help me out.

Hello,

The camshaft bearing caps for the 1G-FE engine should be tightened to 15Nm.
Keep in mind that the bearing caps are marked I for intake and E for exhaust camshaft
Always apply a light coating of clean engine oil before fitting the caps.

Hope this helps.

Cheers, Boris
