Hi raider
you don't need to bleed just unscrew and replace it's that simple you may need to reprime sometime you do some times you don't this can be found in the owners hand book.
Yeah the diff lock switch may not be being bushed when you engage. easy way to test is by trying the above. the switch can be set at different lengths by screwing a little bit more it may work it's worth a shot.
the serpentine belt has a variety of lenghts, they are to depending on things such as no air con, factory air con and non factory air con. what catogory do you fit in to. Rovers north has a good parts list that gives you part numbers.
colour codes from memory can be found on the a plate in the engine bay but can't rember for sure.
Here is the procedure for repriming if you need it easirer than looking
Td5 diesel engine vehicles
In the case of Td5 vehicles,carry out the
following procedure:
1. Turn off the starter switch and wait for 15
seconds.
2. Turn the starter key to position ’II’ and
wait for 30 seconds.
3. Turn off the starter switch.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 six times.
4. Fully depress the accelerator pedal.
5. Keeping the pedal depressed, start
cranking the engine.
6. Continue cranking the engine and as soon
as the engine is running on all cylinders,
ease the accelerator pedal back to
approximately halfway through its travel,
and release the starter key. The engine
should now be running.
7. If the engine fails to start, repeat the
process.
During the above procedure, the fuel pump
will be heard to operate (priming the engine).
This noise is not a cause for concern.
