HELLO, can anyone tell me the tension settings for a Citroen Berlingo cylinder head, I know the tightening order, just cant find the tension settings. Thanks for any information, Stuart

Hi Stuart, details below:

Stage one tightening 20Nm

Stage two tightening 60Nm

Stage three angle tighten a further 180 degrees. The angle tightening is critical as the bolts are stretch types and the angle ensures they are sufficiently stretched to really pull the head down tight.
Don't do the full 180 degree tighten in one bite. Take three bites and thus making five tightening stages in all.
