Gasket part number LVF500040 google for suppliers
Does the TD5 have a sump gasket or is it a silicone make your own? I am about to do my oil pump bolt and I went to repco and they did not list a gasket. Which means two things. Either they can't supply it or one does not exist.

I was asked " Is it ignorance or apathy?" I replied "I don't know and I don't care."

Wouldn't it of fallen out by now if it was going to
Or someone has already done it.

Did mine at 110k/Kim's the bolt was tight but without Loctite it's worth the peace of mind.
I intended to replace it again at 200k Any comments would be appreciated

It's a rubber gasget with inserts around each bolt hole.
The one on mine had torn next to the inserts.
You'll also need to run 3 beads of silicone, 2 front, 1 rear.

Like Kyle says ^^^ you MUST use a gasket, preferably of genuine or OE quality. It is not a job you want to do again because of inferior parts.

The Isuzu 110. Solid and as dependable as a rock, coming soon with auto box😊
The Range Rover L322 4.4.TTDV8 ....probably won't bother with the remap..😈
Go genuine for sure. Spend a few more $ and then know that it will have all the holes line up properly. Have a look at my link below showing some useful photos that I took while doing this job the other day.

also - do the /untensioning/tensioning sequence right for the sump bolts unless you want to risk cracking the alloy sump or getting a poor seal. Some rtv silicone is required at a couple of key points. I suggest you get a Haynes manual to show the details or go to www.discovery2.co.uk / TD5 "Famous" Oil Pump Bolt
