Are the cheaper crankshaft pulleys for hdi engines from GSF ok, or should I get the dearer one from eurocar parts, or one from main dealer.

Russell, do you know what make the GSF ones are? I tend to find that the German components are usually the better quality ones.

I think I got mine from Eurocarparts for about £70 a few weeks ago.

The 2 prices are: higher manufacturer standard, and lower is a cheap copy.

So stay away from the cheap copy?

Yeah I would stay away from the cheap ones. I have learned the hard way about why it's always good to spend the little extra on original or OE spec parts, it could save you a lot of hassle in the long run.
