Post by: greenhornetgti on 04 February 2012, 20:57

Hi I need help please? I'm changing the head gasket on my 2000 vw golf 1.6 8v engine code AEH. Does anyone know the torque settings and the sequence to tighten them up? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks

Guess they would be, also make sure you blow the bolt holes out as anything left in could mean the block cracking.
