2015 Kia Sedona Axle Nut Torque Spec

OEM-referenced axle nut torque, socket size, and thread specs for the 2 axle and hub nut fasteners on the 2015 Kia Sedona — including the Axle Nut Front (torques to 170-200 ft-lbs, M24x1.5 thread). The axle nut retains the CV axle in the hub and on many designs sets the wheel bearing preload, so the exact torque matters. Full bolt specs for the rest of the vehicle are linked below.

Front Axle / Hub Nut torque — 2015 Kia Sedona

On the 2015 Kia Sedona, the front axle / hub nut specs are: Axle Nut Front (torques to 170-200 ft-lbs, M24x1.5 thread). Axle nuts are safety-critical — staked and crimp-collar nuts are single-use on many models, so fit a new nut where the manufacturer requires it and verify the value against your factory service manual before reassembly.

Rear Axle / Hub Nut torque — 2015 Kia Sedona

On the 2015 Kia Sedona, the rear axle / hub nut specs are: Axle Nut Rear (torques to 170-200 ft-lbs, M24x1.5 thread). Axle nuts are safety-critical — staked and crimp-collar nuts are single-use on many models, so fit a new nut where the manufacturer requires it and verify the value against your factory service manual before reassembly.

How to torque the Sedona axle nut correctly

Remove the cotter pin or unstake the old nut with a punch before loosening — never zip a staked nut out through the stake. Break the nut loose with the wheel on the ground (or have a helper hold the brakes) using a breaker bar. On reassembly, seat the CV axle fully, thread the new nut by hand, and bring it to the final spec with a calibrated torque wrench — an impact gun overshoots the spec and can damage the wheel bearing. Stake the collar into the spindle groove (or fit a new cotter pin / cage) once torqued. An under-torqued axle nut lets the bearing run loose and fail; an over-torqued one destroys the bearing preload.
