hiya all
just starting a new thread here but it relates to my crankshaft pulley trouble.
while the pulley is off do you all think i should renew the oil seal? the car as done nearly 120k.
i`d welcome your views
off hand anybody know how much they are?
cheers

I would, while the crank pulley is off. I'd take the old one to a bearing/seal place rather than Vx though. Lip seals are generally cheap.

update.
fitted new seal and pulley along with new crank bolt
started it up but it just didnt sound right and seeing as the tensioner was a bit tricky to move i reckoned thats where i should start, firstly i ran the engine with the belt off and it sounded fine so replaced belt and tensioner for new ones and now it sounds great well for a diesel!!!!
i`m thinking maybe the crank pulley problem was down to a dodgy tensioner?
