Returning to D4 ownership
As soon as I sold my previous D4 I regreted it!
Since then I have been looking for its replacement and at last I am once again the proud owner of a 2015 D4 HSE in Corris Grey.
Got her for a good price because she has 105K miles on the clock, 7 years old and no timing belt change done.
As soon as I got her home I started the timing belt change which is progressing nicely.
Just wanted to share a couple of points here to maybe help others facing this task.
1. The timing pins do not go into the receiving holes the same amount, the right hand one goes in less than the left hand one by about 4mm, see the images I screen grabbed from other YouTube videos.

2. To hold the crank pulley whist loosening and tightening the pulley bolt, I made a tool out of a redundant viscous fan spanner, see the image...
