Which pulley? :)
I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!

The cranchshaft pulley 0515R1 with bolt 051660
My oil pump is leaking, I suspect it is the oring 101922 and I need to take off the pulley to get in there.

Here is how the leak looks like:

Petrol or diesel engine ?
From the Haynes manual
- petrol stage 1 is 40 Nm, then stage 2 is angle tighten a further 53°. The cam shafts and crank shaft should be locked in place before undoing the crank shaft pulley bolt.
- diesel stage 1 is 70 Nm, then stage 2 is angle tighten a further 60°. For removal of the pulley the engine should be set at TDC and the cam shaft and crank shaft locked in place as the crankshaft sprocket has a wider keyway to allow it to rotate a bit during tensioning of the timing belt. Failure to do this could lose the timing. So the pulley bolt can be undone it says to use a flywheel locking tool and not just something in the timing holes.
