Default B4204T31 Oil drain plug torque specs

Good morning/afternoon all!

I'm struggling like hell to find proper drain plug torque specs for me 2018 T4 V90.
Engine code: B4204T31
I see there are some differences between volvo engines:
Volvo S60 / V60 Torque Specs (2010 on)


I didn't find it using the forum search.
Do you have a general document for this engine/car?

Thank you very much!

Regards,
Francois

Not sure if there's a formal document with a spec but I've always used 20-25 ft-lbs as a guide for the oil drain plug. to convert ft-lbs to NMs, divide by .74. Most people over-torque the plug... Also I assume your year still uses a crush washer (again most people don't bother to replace, which is why they over-torque)

No aluminum washer that I change everytime ;-).

I'm quite sure there is a torque spec. I believe they (Volvo) should communicate on this...
As you can see in my previous link, depending on the engine, the torque value is different.
I'm just trying to ensure I'm doing it perfectly.

Else, I'll just tighten it by hand like I used to do. But would prefer the "precise" way.

Thank you!
