After my experiance I would ensure that whoever you get to change it does have the correct tool to hold the crank still while the centre bolt is loosened/tightened.
I was willing to risk doing it myself with a homemade widget as I'll give most things a go!

You may want to try ringing around various independant VW specialists as the engine is a VW unit, I am suprised that the VW comercial place wasn't interested though.

My experiance of Volvo main dealers and the D24 engines is that they dont have a clue about them, though I might have just been unlucky.

If you are planning on getting a rebuilt engine, then don't bother chanigng it....just keep your fingers crossed!, if you intend on keeping that engine then I would get it done.

Regards
