Post by: wotavidun on 11 July 2007, 13:28:56

Hi just about finished replacing the cam cover gaskets on my 2001 2.5 V6 but does anyone know the torque settings for the cam cover bolts??

Cheers

8 newton meters :)

Essential that they're at this torque

Questions:

Have you cleaned out breather system? If not, do this, else the gaskets will blow again, without fail!!

Have you used the VX black sealant on the esseential corners on the heads?

Are the half moons seated correctly?

Thanks mate,

yes i've done everything including full clean and the half moons look like they're sitting properly.

Just putting it all back together!!!

Cheers
