What is the torque pattern for an ax4n transmission pan?

The torque pattern for an AX4N transmission pan typically involves tightening the pan bolts in a crisscross or diagonal sequence to ensure even pressure distribution. Start by hand-tightening all bolts, then use a torque wrench to tighten them to the manufacturer's specified torque, usually around 10-12 lb-ft. It's important to follow this pattern to avoid warping the pan and to ensure a proper seal. Always refer to the specific service manual for the exact torque specifications and patterns for your vehicle.
