Cylinder head bolt tightening order

[davew2]

Hi could someone please put a picture of the head bolt tightening order on a 2.5 di please i've searched everywhere and cannot find one. I know the torque setting sequence 70nm 70nm then 90 degree. Thanks

Just start from the middle bolts first and then work your way out going diagonally each side till you get to each end and then start in the centre and do it again unless it’s the torque first and then the required amount of degrees

yes diagonally from the centre, if you search online many' vehicles are the same

They say diagonal... I say spiral out

Don't forget one of these.

Or mark the head bolts with tippex for the 90degree bit.

Seem to remember bolts at the back are a bit awkward

As long as you start in the middle and work your way out diagonally or spiral works ok

Torque setting only we always then did them again when hot or after a run the advantage of torque and then tighten to the degrees method was you did them only once no re torque
