What ever you do , do not turn the engine backwards, timing can jump a link on the chain and the crank bolt is bloody tight and must be tightend as to rave.

This should have the tool you require: BMW & LANDROVER 1.8 2.5 TD TDS TD5 P38 CHAIN DRIVEN ENGINE TIMING TOOL SET | eBay

I've got a set but that's probably less than the fuel coming down here!
