What's the correct method for tightening the head bolts on my 2001 Kangoo 1.9 Diesel, and what are the torque settings for each stage in Newtonmetres

Hi Rich, first off you must use new bolts!!!
Tighten to 30Nm
then plus 100 +/_ 4 deg
wait 3 min's ???
then bolts 1 & 2 slacken off then 25Nm then plus 213+/_ 7 deg
then repeat for bolts in pairs 3&4, 5&6 7&8 9&10

The sequence for tightning is

8, 4, 1, 5, 9,
Flywheel>
7, 3, 2, 6, 10
