Can anyone (Wammers!) confirm that this contains all the necessary timing tools for taking the head off an M51?

Thanks!

For the M51 you want this FoxHunter Diesel Engine Timing Tool Kit BMW Land Rover Vauxhall Opel 1.8 2.0 2.5 | eBay You can do the chains with this kit. Other kit has stuff in in for other units you will never need. You will also need an adaptor and DTI to time the injection pump. You will also need an angle tightening gauge for refitting the head.

Do the timng chains while you are taking the head off - it's cheap, even genuine parts.
Remember to replace all angle tightened bolts(head bolts, crankshaft center bolt, camshaft bolt etc.) with new genuine ones!
