For the 1.6L engine its 3 passes, 26 Ft Lbs then 41, then 52.

For the 2.0L DOHC engine, its a bit different. You will have 6 total steps. Bolts 1-10 will be tightend as follows:

39 Ft Lbs, then 61, then FULLY loosen bolts, tighten again to 39 then a second pass to 61.

Final bolt 11 will be tighten only once to 76 Ft. Lbs.
