Props to RickHaleParker for posting the guide, thanks: viewtopic.php?t=97268 Install was easy, just followed directions. I installed VIDA 2014D Repack on a fresh Windows 10 Pro on an old laptop. Some fasteners require additional angle torque, but the fasteners you're dealing with don't. Whatever grade the nut/bolt/screw has stamped on it, torque it to the above specs. As for the part (W0133-1891457), I've never seen one need to be replaced. Make sure you know the correct placement of the hardware for installation. Replace all the hardware if the strut had been left loose. Regarding the 'support plate,' I'd say yes replace it. One tip I have if you're doing this job on your own, is to hook a ratchet strap to each control arm, tighten the strap as much as possible, and that'll bring them down for easier installation. Hard for experienced techs to handle for the first time. It's not easy, installation can be very difficult. Please tell me you have a spring compressor to complete the job, right?. The counter stay nut with the T-40 should be in the 50-80 NM range. The rusty, threaded rod is the strut mount rod, though that may not be the technical name. The rear suspension arm stay has an eccentric bolt that is adjustable, but that's the only rear alignment adjustment that can be done on this vehicle. There would be no reason for a technician to mess with it. I'm not sure why the rear strut tower would've been tampered with during an alignment.
