Order when removing isnt so important. Your get tightening sequences and torque settings with the new bolts.

you should really undo them in the reverse order to the tightening sequence, and in stages.... nobody does though......except me.

i don't have any head bolt info with me till later on. but most decent headgaskets come with a guide.

basically, the actual engine bit is the same, its down to the electronics & if it has a CAT. thats what the C stands for

just get the standard hex, non torx style head bolts, as the torx ones round for fun.

ok, do you know if it has a lambda probe in the exhaust or not?

if yes, then c16se, if no, then e16se
