Smile yes indeed - belts have recently been done but nothing saying that the oil pump has been done so that's now playing on my mind Rolling Eyes

Get the oil pump done, at least it will then give you peace of mine

Mine's a MY08 and pump now done, so just got to worry about all the other stuff now Laughing

Good Luck !

This is an absolute MUST - your D3 is right in the range for weakness in this area - if it goes you're into new engine territory and a multi-four figure bill - I cannot stress this enough
