VERY IMPORTANT

While they are off check the exhaust gaskets well as this is your best chance to replace them

Don't worry i am in the process of changing everything including water pump & thermostat etc..  It's the wifes car and she has got my Range Rover at the moment  :'(  and i want it back  ;) so i'm going to make sure the VX is not going to break again for  while  ;)

welcome mate :y

what makes you think the head gaskets are gone?

don't know about the torque settings for head bolts but if you have a flick through the maintenance section i'm sure you'll find all you need to know in there.

 I guess that would be because they are laying on my garage floor !  ;D ;D  but really  ... started by changing the HBV / oil cooler & plate but still leaked , after pressure testing could see a "Squirt" from the rear of the n/s head just below ignition module plate, Both heads were then removed (lovely job [smiley=lolk.gif]) i have to admit though i was quite suprised by the amount of "rot" in the gaskets

Lots of torque settings here ...any mising ones yell out and I'll look in the Haynes book, assuming a 2.5 V6 here of course ....  :)
