Important!

Aluminium-magnesium materials.

No steel screws/bolts may be used due to the threat of
electrochemical corrosion.

exclusively.

Aluminium screws/bolts must be replaced each time they are 
released.

The end faces of aluminium screws/bolts are painted blue for
the purposes of reliable identification.

Jointing torque and angle of rotation must be observed
without fail (risk of damage).

Remove exhaust system.

Drain coolant

Drain off engine oil
