The sensor should be adjusted to achieve a 0.4 to 1.5mm air gap from the ring.

Thanks for that. But need to know if the pickup ring needs to be put on the crank a special way?

Yes, there is a tool to align, and fit the ring onto the back of the crankshaft.

You need to be very lucky to get it 100% accurate without the tool My D3 Build Thread

Manufactured by SPX, sold onto main dealers. If you are on good terms with your local dealer, they may lend you one

Failing that, you need to find a tool supplier My D3 Build Thread

thank you Melvin

This post should be pinned...
I have been searching for this for HOURS.

Thank you Melvin you made my day Fixing LR problems very far from Solihull.
That's why my newest car is a 1999 Disco 2 V8 with 285.000 miles

The problem is the missing documentation, not the LR
