Is this a difficult job that requires any special tools? I have some torx keys.
My van is a 1.6 td l/h drive 5speed.

Hi mog,
Welcome to the forum. I replaced one of these a while back. Should be quite straight forward. Can't really remember now to be honest. But think I improvised something using a large socket and long bolt to carefully install the new seal. Don't think i took any pictures because I seem to remember it pissing down at the time. You shouldn't need any special tools.
Cheers,
Sam.
