Does the use of threadlocker change the tightening torque of the bolts? I would like to use it to seal the thread from moisture and corrosion but if the tightening torques change, it is a problem. I have to use torque-to-yield bolts, for a car subframe and engine mount, this bolts are designed to stretch during the torquing and I need to set them on the correct torque.
The workshop manual says 100nm + 1/4 of a turn for the subframe and 40nm + 1/4 of a turn for the engine mounts
