Do i need pd150 head bolts?

Perfect thank you very much. I have a Haynes manual so that will make more sense when it comes to the sequence.

Sequence is not required when changing one bolt at a time,start where you want

Sequence is only for when the head is being removed,so the pressure is released equally over the head so it doesn't risk distortion

Ah okay - that makes things easier, start at a corner and go clockwise then! Thank you very much for clarifying.

I’ve got a polo pd130 but just got the pd150 turbo, I already have a fmic and hardpipes, will I need pd150 head bolts as well or am I able to keep the ones already on?

You should change the bolts to prevent problems with the increased boost from the new turbo. Why wouldn't you, it's an easy job.

I never had them with a hybrid pd150 but as stated it is a good idea to change them for the cost and time its definitely worth it. 

 

Do one at a time.

OK, I'm not re-reading the entire thread, but would you be best to do them in the "tightening order" for a head gasket replacement?
