CDTI Crankshaft pulley, woodruff key ???
Hi all,
Does the crankshaft pulley on the CDTI slot over a woodruff key ? or can it be tightened up in any position ? I ask because I just got a call from my brother who is changing one. There is no key but there is a slot on the crank and a notch on the pulley. Thanks Pete. |

He said he got it off using the starter motor way.

When I bought my car someone had obviously thought that the pulley should have had a key so they had made one which was fractionally too big causing the pulley not to seat correctly which took me a while to sort out. I do ponder why the pulley didn't have a woodruff key it wouldn't have needed to be bolted up so tight. |

100% NO woodruff key.
Cant speak for the v6, but this was/is a mistake in the EPC if they still list it. |
It isn't a mistake to list it as there is a woodruff key fitted to the sprocket inboard of the crank pulley.
As you can see from Rimmers it is not drawn in the correct position: https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-GRID001733 |
