Regarding the cylinder heads, this removal and installation technique focuses on leaving the camshaft(s) as it is and retaining the exhaust manifold(s). First of all, the intake manifold should be removed before taking off timing chains, sprockets and guides. Then we go under the front part of the car securely supporting it before unbolting exhaust pipes from exhaust manifolds. Any other things like coolant fittings, cables or brackets connected to a head must be detached after they are properly identified. The cylinder head bolts should be loosened in an opposite order to their tightening sequence so that warping or cracking will not develop. It is important that when lifting off the engine block, any external components should be taken away for complete cleansing and inspection; at this point also include any other attached parts such as hoses and wires. On reinstallation make sure that each surface between cylinder head and block is perfectly clean without carbon deposits old gasket remnants or oil traces which can influence gasket sealing action. To do this use a gasket scraper and wipe with lacquer thinner or acetone. Shop rags may have been stuffed into blocked cylinders in order to avoid falling debris while a vacuum cleaner may be used to remove anything that might go inside there during material pouring out. Moreover, surfaces where both block meets head must also be seen for checks about nicks as well as deep scratches needing filling up or even machining it if necessary. Also chase I through with tap and blow them out with air hose till dry.Cylinder head bolts could stretch; therefore if one side does not touch straight edge, replace it.All warped cylinder heads including those of head gasket as well as intake/exhaust manifolds will require confirmation from automotive machine shop.The lash adjusters, camshaft should then start putting back what was removed from the Head.Firstly new cylinder head gasket should carefully placed over dowel pins on block noting its orientation.Should now take it and carefully have the gasket in place without interfering with the dowels.When installing head bolts, clean engine oil should be applied to M10 bolt threads with chamfered side of washers facing bolt heads if used.M8 thread on sealant is to be applied on head bolts.Install the bolts in their original locations, finger-tighten and then using an angle meter measure torque plus degrees. Lastly install timing chain guides, timing chains and timing sprockets while refilling cooling system change oil filter and add oil before starting engine for leaks of oil or coolant.

Conclude by changing the oil and filter, refilling the cooling system, running the engine, and checking for leaks.

Ensure the mating surfaces of the cylinder heads and block are perfectly clean, using gasket removal solvents and a scraper as needed.

Coat the head bolt threads with engine oil.

Ensure the mating surfaces of the cylinder head and block are perfectly clean, using a gasket scraper to remove all traces of carbon and old gasket material, and clean with lacquer thinner or acetone.

Before commencing the cylinder head removal procedure, ensure that the engine is completely cool.

After disconnecting the battery, drain the cooling system and then remove the intake manifold.

Following the removal of the primary timing chain and sprockets, proceed to remove the camshafts from the cylinder head.

To prepare for installation, ensure that the mating surfaces of the block and heads are clean and free of debris. Use a gasket scraper and lacquer thinner or acetone to clean the surfaces. Check for any damage and address it using emery cloth or machining if necessary. Chase the threads in the head bolt holes and clean the bolt threads.

Install the bolts in their original locations, tightening them finger tight before following the proper sequence for torque and angle of rotation.

Remove the rear timing belt cover bolts and create a cardboard template to store the cylinder head bolts accurately. Loosen each cylinder head mounting bolt in a reverse tightening sequence and store them accordingly.

First, disconnect the cable from the negative terminal of the battery, ensuring to disconnect the Intelligent Battery Sensor connector first on 2015 and later models.

Hold the camshaft sprocket hex with a wrench while using a socket and breaker bar to loosen the camshaft bolt, which is under considerable torque.

Position the new gaskets correctly on the dowels in the block. Carefully place the heads on the block without disturbing the gaskets. Coat the head bolt threads with engine oil and install the bolts in their original locations. Tighten the bolts following the recommended sequence and torque specifications.

For installation, position the new head gasket over the dowels in the block, place the cylinder head over it without disturbing the gasket, and apply engine oil to the head bolt threads and underneath the bolt heads. Install the bolts in their original locations and tighten them following the recommended sequence to the specified torque.

Lift the heads off the engine using a block of wood or by striking a wood block with a hammer. Store the heads on blocks of wood.

When installing the cylinder head, ensure that the mating surfaces are clean and free of debris. Place the new gasket over the dowel pins and carefully position the cylinder head on the engine block.

When installing the cylinder head, ensure that the mating surfaces are clean and free of debris. Place the new gasket over the dowel pins and carefully position the cylinder head on the engine block.

When installing head bolts, applying clean engine oil to M10 bolt threads and hardened washers (if equipped), with the chamfered side of the washers facing the bolt heads, is recommended. For M8 head bolts, thread sealant should be applied to the bolt threads.

Complete the remaining installation steps in reverse order. Finally, add coolant, change the engine oil and filter, and start the engine to check for proper operation and leaks.

Before starting, disconnect the batteries' negative terminals and drain the coolant.

The cylinder head, with the camshaft in place and the exhaust manifold attached, should be carefully lifted off the engine block, and any external components should be removed for thorough cleaning and inspection.

Threads in the head bolt holes should be chased with a tap and cleaned with compressed air.

The initial steps are to relieve the fuel system pressure and disconnect the battery. Drain the cooling system and remove the drivebelt. Take out the PCV and EVAP system components, as well as the cowl.

Warpage of the cylinder head, as well as the head gasket, intake, and exhaust manifold surfaces, should be checked with consultation from an automotive machine shop.

For installation, position the new head gasket over the dowels in the block, place the cylinder head over it without disturbing the gasket, and apply engine oil to the head bolt threads and underneath the bolt heads. Install the bolts in their original locations and tighten them following the recommended sequence to the specified torque.

Before removing the cylinder head, you should disconnect all wires and vacuum hoses from the cylinder heads. Also, disconnect the ignition coils and spark plugs. Remove the catalytic converter(s), valve covers, crankshaft pulley, and oil pans.

All additional components attached to the cylinder head, such as coolant fittings, ground straps, cables, hoses, wires, or brackets, should be labeled and removed.

Complete the remaining installation steps, including changing the oil and filter, refilling the cooling system, and priming the fuel filter before starting the engine.

Before starting, disconnect the batteries' negative terminals and drain the coolant.

To remove the cylinder head, you need to take off several components including the timing chain, oil control valves, timing chain tensioner, chain guides, camshafts, rocker arms, and lash adjusters.

To install the heads, ensure the mating surfaces are clean and free from old gasket material and dirt. Use a gasket scraper and brake cleaner to clean the surfaces. Check for any damage and remove it if necessary. Chase the threads in the head bolt holes and clean the bolt threads.

Clean the block and head mating surfaces thoroughly, checking for nicks and scratches. Check for warpage using a straightedge and feeler gauge. Clean the injector nozzle seats and the block deck surface, ensuring it's within specified limits. Chase the threads in the head bolt holes with a tap and die, and measure the head bolt lengths. If the bolts are stretched beyond the allowable length, replace them.
