Sorry, only got it in german. But i have marked the important bits.

Blue is Inlet Valve
Red is Outlet Valve

Also note, that it says that Water Temperature shouldn't exceed 35°C when doing the adjustment.

I have no personal experience with valve adjustment, so better to wait for someone to confirm.

Thanks you all guys !

Just left my trouble concerning seats

I am processing to full restauration of the car. Inclunding interior, full paint; engine... I will post some pictures

As per the above, that's the adjustment.

Do you want me to write a how to for the CSL valve adjustment ?

Thanks a lot Alex.
I am living in the south of France but sent my car near Paris for 3 months refurbishing. 1 month for the mechanic and 2 months for whole body painting. Many years in the Nürburgring scratched the paint almost everywhere and I want it like new.

Concerning the How to, the garage asked me if I know the values. It is time winning for them. So I guess (I hope ), they will do it fine. I am confident, that is why I sent the car so far in fact :

Looks like it is in very good hands. Mine is littered with stone chips etc too. I call it patina.
I hope it won't be a garage queen after the overhaul

I do it to be able to use it again for the next 10 years. No worry for that. "Patina" is not what I prefer 😁
