In my car, the space between idler and tensioner bearing bolts and the chassis is so limited (as per the following picture) that you can't use a torque wrench. In fact, the torque wrench itself can be put in the area but you can't attach any socket to it. I had to use a ring spanner to tighten the bolts but first, I practiced with my torque wrench to get the feeling of the required torque specs (with other bolts on the car) to avoid over-tightening the bolts.
Is there anyway to use a torque wrench in my next service?
