    Anyone know the correct torque for this? I'm gonna check the rollers when the tool comes later this week for holding variator.

    The Peugeot Scooter workshop manual states 40Nm as the torque and most variator nuts are around a similar size and thread to the Pug variator.

    Thanks. Will see if I can measure the current torque before I take it off.

    I'd go with 40Nm and a dab of Loctite Thread Lock, just for peace of mind.
