By chance, found a cheap tool at Superc##p that will hold all three pulleys on a TDi in order to undo the bolts.



You all can undo the thermatic fan left hand thread with a 32mm spanner - but mine was stiff and the fanbelt wasn't holding it still. Strange as it may seem, Supercheap has this chain clamp for $15. It fits the fan pulley, power steer and coolant pump pulleys, holding them whilst you attack the bolts. Very useful - one of the rare times Superc##p has somthing usefull.
