How difficult is it to replace as a DIY? Obviously I'll need to download VIDA for detailed guidance, but are dedicated tools required?
As they say 90000 I would get it done at 90000 ... even if it is between services ..
The method is similar to the 5 cylinder D5 except the fuel pump is driven off the cambelt and a round locking pin is needed , The pump is timed to the belt so that the heavy pulses needed to drive the pump do not coincide with the valve opening pulses from the camshafts .. The vida instructions are quite clear
