Torx T?? 25,27,30? Best get a set they are handy.

see below.

or a handle set, which gives you the reach and the shorter handle Torque for the tighter screws.

@patek111, how many kilometres/miles are on the vehicle?

The two hoses to the EGR valve are also known failure points and should also be replaced. It's best to remove the inlet manifold to provide easy access to the four Torx bolts on the lower part of the thermostat housing, and this is a good time to replace the return hoses to the EGR whilst the manifold is out of the way.
