09 berlingo 1.6 hdi , turbo inlet torque for locking nut

[Bemluc]

Hi , was checking for play on the turbo shaft on the inlet side when the locking nut came loose , is this normal will I need to get it tightened and maybe a little lochtite, thanks any help greatly appreciated

That is novel ! I would think you need to stick a lolly stick into the fan to counterhold it and then nip the nut up using a quarter inch drive deep socket, a dab of loctite might be a good idea, how you could measure torque on such a small fastening in such a location, I would set my wrist to 0.005 of a white knuckle
