During installation, attention should be paid to the torque value on the gasket; a torque value of 20-25 Nm is generally recommended. Additionally, the cylinder head gasket should be replaced with every engine revision. Depending on the engine's operating conditions, especially during long journeys, the engine's warm-up time should be taken into account.
