Some VR6 Bolt torque settings?

Recommended Posts

After buying a VR6 engine to fit into my Golf and finding the head was damaged beyond repair, I have finally got to the point where my replacement head is ready to stick back on the block!

 

I have rebuilt the head and all is happy but I have a few toque settings I need to trace in order to stick it all back together and i was wondering if anyone can answer the torque settings of the following:

 

Camshaft caps

Camshaft timing pulley bolt

Timing chain guide bolts

Mid timing chain pulley bolt - The one you have to take off to release the chains.

Flywheel

Gearbox

Timing chain cover

Head bolt tightening sequence including angle tightening

Cam cover

Manifolds

 

I have basically stripped the head and changing the timing belts and guides etc and at the same time the clutch so if anyone knows any of the above I would be gratefull for any help.

 

Oh I'll post some pics of a badly eroded VR head, its erroded on cylinder 2 from the water way all the way to the firing ring and is 4mm deep in some places! luckily ebay is there so I cound a replacement fairly swiftly :-)

 

cheers

Sprocket to Intermediate shaft 100Nm

Flywheel to Crankshaft 70Nm plus 90 degrees

Clutch 20Nm

Lower chain tensioner to block 10Nm

Lower chain guide to block 25Nm

Cylinder head bolts 40Nm then 60Nm then 180 degrees
