Is the 4.4 V8 fan the same as the TDV6 unit ? I have the same type of set as Hardware, essentially a 36 mm ? spanner, and another with appropriate cut out/holes in, to hold the drive hub with. This works (on a TDV6), if you fit them both, and give the spanner a whack ( clockwise to undo) with a big hide faced mallet or similar.D3 owned from new, P017 brake recall, BAS FBHIC, new FBH, LR013487 oil pump, new water pump. RRS front lower suspension arms. New suspension compressor/ relay. New Denso alternator. CuNifer rear brake pipes. New GKN rear propshaft. New HPFP belt & tensioner. New A/C Condenser.NO WARRANTY for many many years.
LR apparently only do 2 nut sizes for the fan ... the double ended one does both..

Just measured the spanner open ends, 32mm and 36mm. Endeavour can you measure the fan nut, to see if these will fit ?D3 owned from new, P017 brake recall, BAS FBHIC, new FBH, LR013487 oil pump, new water pump. RRS front lower suspension arms.

You will need a 36 mm wrench for the bolt nut on the viscous fan. The special tool just locks the bolts on the water pump in place. You don’t need it if you can lock the bolts with something else... Remember - righty loosey.
(I measured this yesterday on my MY05 D3 V8 )

I removed the bumper and crash bar and did it from the front.
