I beleive it is approx 3.5 hours. 4.2 with air con .Hope this helps.

zulublue:
I don't know the book time, but from very recent experience I would say about 4 hours, alot depending on experience. hope your back on the road soon.

extreme90:
took me 4 hours to do the last snapped belt on a disco, that included changing a few broken rockers

Les Henson:
You will have bent some pushrods, but broken rockers are not as common as on the 300 TDi engine, so these might still be ok.  Removing the crank bolt and pulley are always what makes the job more difficult. I would agree with 4-hours if everything goes smoothly, but 5 might be more realistic if things get awkward.
