Finally have the answer to my knock sensor conundrum D3 2009 Euro 4 does not have them I think its the same for 07-09 but still have to double check have also noticed that many sources advertise engine wiring looms as 05-09 this is not correct as the looms change from 07 as there is a change of fuel pump and the removal of the diverter rail, up to 07 two plugs for the pump one for the diverter rail, after 07 on pump has two plugs only, but has a plug for the sensor on the front of the left hand distribution rail not on pre 07 it really was difficult to find this info for myself fitting fuel tank when weather gets a bit dryer and warmer going to put some of the trim back on ready for mot, brakes all serviced the just have to top up auto box
gbox sump warm to the touch and oil should just dribble out of filler, wrong level can make box act weird

Thanks mate will do plan on running and cycling through the gears a few times and re-checking/ topping off until happy before moving
I think proper sump temp is 40degc and a real thin spiders web string of oil out of the filler plug, I have always assumed the instructions are so precise as its so important, myself I just use the warm touch method.

Was a bit fiddly and difficult to reach when you have a bad back, removed the cooler pipe first, then the wiring including the l/h injector plugs this let me move it one side and out of harm, hard lines, disconnected, unclipped and moved aside, oil filter, throttle body, and breather going to be tricky to put back, then pump to fuel rails undone at unions and moved enough, then belt cover and part of the back plate 2 x10mm, tensioner off being careful to not damage threads, belt off, next was the trickiest job for me any way there are two torqs each side of the pump inside timing cover had to use 1/4 drive as access is tight, two more 10mm from above and its out, may have missed something out. just to bore you further there are two different pumps for the D3 5ws40157 pre 07 euro 2/3 also has a distributer rail on pump giving you an extra plug, also listed as XF and peugeot and another 5ws40273 from 07 on euro 4 fuel rails and hard line connectors including fuel rail pressure sensor, and engine loom are all pre or post so be careful ordering these parts because their often listed as 04-09. 09 euro 4 does not have knock sensors either apparently will put pics in next post as it wont let me post on same page as text

Oh no done it again bought another D3 07 manual runs and drives couple of suspension clunks needs a compressor it came with a new Hitachi unit and bracket its giving me two error codes one for r/h rear height sensor the other is a pressure too slow it states on dash normal height only I have a spec sheet for the hitachi but it doesn't mention if its plug and play either does anyone know? Back in the workshop now not so busy in my day job

If it’s the same pump on the car then yes plug and play (well it was on the 322).

Yes they all come with a new relay. To replace the old 1.
but if somebody previously fitted an AMK then it’s not a direct replacement, so as long as it looks the same as the 1 on it at the moment it is straight swap.
There is quite a visual difference between the 2 so easy to tell.
It has come with a new drier attached as well hasn’t it? Because they can clog the filters in them whoch doesn’t help air

should have looked at the pic yes it has the air drier on it..
