To be fair, if you need to have images of this repair it's probably a little beyond your capabilities. I say this in a respectful way. To renew the pump on the lynx engine, you need to remove the engine mounting in order to access the repair area and space is limited due to the proximity of the chassis rail.

The actual removal and refittment of the component uses no special tools per say, but a degree of mechanical skill is required to remove the aux belt, mounting and the pump itself as the bolts aren't easy to see.
