I'm about to change front pads and rotors on my 2013 and I've been trying to find out the required torque for the caliper and slides. The settings I've been able to find online are not vehicle specific and are all over the place, so hopefully you guys can help.

Also is there specific grease I should use on the slides? Finally, should I replace anything else while I'm at it?

Thanks a lot!

Caliper grease.

You are one of a few that will torque the bolts. I usually snug them up. You can use the standard torque spec chart for bolt sizes and pick the middle of the range.
