    hello, i am doing a head gasket replacement next week for the first time on my own on my ca18det, do I need special tools? or i can just work it out with a torque wrench and basic stuff? and any tips are appreciated

    I'd get a long 10 mm (I think) allan key on a socket for getting the head bolts in and out. torque wrenches that go from from 10nm too 200nm plus download the service manual and just follow the instructions it's actually pretty simple ☺
