Subject:WBX Cylinder Head Nut Torque check, re-torque
From:Neil N
Date:Fri, 15 Jul 2016 12:12:39 -0700

Hi all

I'm searching but don't see a clear direction on this.
For checking, re-torquing WBX head nuts (I think it's the first one):

- in Bentley torque sequence, check torque of each nut, re-torque as
needed?  Or,

- drain coolant, remove - install each nut one at at time in reverse order,
apply new sealant at each nut?

Thanks

Neil.
