Thank you for that, the S Type is a great car but it has been a bit of a learning curve for me.

Hi All, I have a Jaguar S type 2.7 diesel 2007, I am considering changing the oil pump when I change the timing belt.

Has anybody tackled this job before?  I have no problem with changing the belt but the Oil pump looks more difficult. The work shop manual says that you need to remove the sump, but on You Tube I have seen the pump changed on a Land Rover Discovery with a similar engine where the sump was not removed. Any insight to this job would be much appreciated. Simon
