[Mk2] [NA] head bolt socket size for rev2 auto import

[robo]

Having a moment



Just received the OTC 6022 socket to find out its too small. Anyone know which one I'm meant to be using on a rev2 auto import?

Cheers

If i remember right , i cut the corner off a 10mm allen key slapped a socket over it and did them that way if you cant be bothered to wait for the right tool.

From memory it's a 12mm 12 point socket, but I'll go check for you...

I'd be nervous of torquing them down with an allen key

Thanks Ashley... let me know when you've checked

It certainly is for ARP's so maybe yours is fitted with them already?

M12 spline I think

Sweeet.... yep the M12 12 point with 100mm length did the job nicely thanks!
