Much appreciated if anyone can help. torque settings can vary from one manufacturers bolts to another, should be around 40NM then 60NM then 180 degrees to stretch BTW, a golf or passat haynes manual will have the info and should set you back less than a fiver from e-bay.

davidwort 0 Posted March 12, 2007 should i replace all the bolts or will the ones already in be ok? you can get away with it once (re-stretching bolts) but it's not advisable, they are designed to be used once only and a snapped head bolt in the block could be a real PITA Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
