Retaining frame for camshafts - tightening torque and sequence
  Note
The illustration shows the retaining frame for cylinder head (left-side).
–  Renew bolts for retaining frame.
–  Tighten bolts in the sequence -1 ... 21- in 3 stages as follows:
1.  Screw in bolts by hand until they make contact.
l  The retaining frame should make contact with the cylinder head over the full surface.
2.  Tighten to 8 Nm.
3.  Turn 90° further.
