if you are going to change the air con if you have it take a good look at you main belt if it has any cracks in it change that at the same time as well as you have to take it off any way to get at the air con and vice versa and the main one I always think of being like a letter 8 but not meeting in the middle
I will have them both done as I don't know when they were last changed. I have had the FL almost 5 years now.
I am planning a lengthy trip around Europe next year so want to get everything sorted before that trip.
I will have the VCU replaced at some point this year. Not having any issues with it, but I might as well for peace of mind.
Will also change oils in diff and gearbox too and anything else that doesn't come to mind at the moment.
New tyres too.

Does the TD4 have a belt to drive the fuel pump?
No. The HP pump is driven by the timing chain.
It's quite a robust setup, unlike the injectors themselves.

Its a pig of a job 1st time you do it ,piece of **** 2nd time, jack up driver front an chock it safe ,take off plastic cowell , best take a pic of belts case you forget locations, I just cut the old belts, do ac first this is easy, tension using the can just twist with finger and thumb rule 
then make sure you have correct size no off set ring spanner long reach or like i do big adjustable, fiddle like feck to get belt in correct possition ,the last bit is to pull the tension adjustment clockwise , and slip belt over last pully, um no good if youve a bad back . . . . .i got Porky to do it (eeze er furra bred)
