Vwgolf1.4 16v head bolt torque
30nm + 90degr
The head torque settings for a VW Polo 1.6 cylinder head are 40 newton meters with 2- 90 degree turns. Bolts should always be replaced. It is not recommended to reuse the bolts.

The VW engine does not use a head gasket. The cylinders sit inside a recess cut into the cylinder head (this is called fly cutting the head) and a seal is made between the recess in the head and the top rim of the cylinder itself. If this area becomes damaged or overheated in any way, high temperature combustion gases leak out, causing burning of the head and cylinder top, requiring expensive repairs. The "running on three cylinders" you describe is typical of an engine with at least one damaged cylinder/head joint (assuming all cylinders have working spark plugs and the correct fuel/air mixture is being supplied).

For a 1972 VW Beetle with a 1300 engine, the torque settings are typically around 21 ft-lbs (28 Nm) for the cylinder head bolts. For the crankshaft main bearing nuts, the torque specification is generally about 30 ft-lbs (40 Nm). Always consult a service manual for the most accurate specifications, as variations may exist based on specific engine configurations or upgrades.

The torque specification for the cylinder head bolts on a VW Citi Golf 1.4i typically ranges from 20 to 25 Nm (Newton-meters) for the initial tightening, followed by an additional angle turn of 90 degrees. It's crucial to follow the specific service manual for the vehicle to ensure accuracy, as variations may exist based on engine type or year. Always use a calibrated torque wrench and follow the recommended tightening sequence for optimal results.
