cipx2 Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 I guess your uncle's 300tdi doesn't fall in the ranges listed here: http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=12788 or the mods were done at some point of its life. Many people use the kit showed in the 1st picture of this thread: http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=6943 What u can see in that picture is [the #s in brackets are pos in the picture below]: STC4096L [11+24+2+4+5+6+7+8+9] timing kit ERR4575(G) [18] crankshaft front oil seal ERR7143(G) [15] crankshaft timing cover seal These are the min recommended bits. Depending on your choice and/or state of the parts, you might consider replacing: ERR3356(G) [17] camshaft oil seal ERR4710 [10] crankshaft o-ring ERR5215 [3] woodruff key (G) means that u can get the genuine part (recommended) ERR4575G or OEM/aftermarket ERR4575.

JimAttrill Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 "ERR7143(G) [15] crankshaft timing cover seal" I thought it was ERR4576, not that we change them unless the case has the old metal seal. Preferably get the kit from Bearmach not LR, STC4096K which will have a forged crank pulley not the spot-welded OEM LR one which falls to bits and takes your engine with it. Quote
cipx2 Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 It's ERR7143 for VINs from VA560898 and ERR4576 for VINs up to VA560897 What I didn't like at the Bearmach kit was that there was nothing written on the bearings, I couldn't find anything about them. At least the "L" kit I bought had NSK bearings. Do you happen to have a spot welded crank pulley that you took out and shows some signs of wear or fell into pieces? I mean I take your word for this but it would be interesting to see one (and perhaps what mileage?). Quote
