Cambelt change on a 300Tdi (Land Rover) with EDC Auto

Best to ask on Landyzone forum, just like here but Landrovers, helpful bunch

The only difference on the auto and manual is the flywheel locking pin. Otherwise the IP is locked out the same, you can use a drill bit. Make sure you have the modified timing belt crankshaft pulley fitted, or be ready to fit one if (somehow) your engine still has the original one on.

I've only ever done them using the locking pin in the pump and timing marks on the crank and cam.
Remember that the pulley on the pump has a vernier adjustment, so you can let the pulley float a little to get the belt on properly and everything lined up.

There are 3 versions of the cam belt kit, the original which uses the tensioner for belt alignment, the first mod which uses the crank pulley as the guide with side plates spot welded on, and the final version which also uses the crank pulley as a guide, but is cast in one piece.

You want the final version, as the second one, whilst a step forward was notable for the spot welds failing and either allowing the belt to buff away against the front cover, or pulling the spot welded plate in with obvious consequences.

The timing pin/puller kit is only about £20, and makes the job easier, especially getting the pulleys off.
It can be quite a battle to get the timing belt pulley off the crank also.
