Hi Arty and a happy new year to you too.
Relay R4 in the auxiliary junction box supplies fuse F33 30A in the same box which in turn, supplies the fuel pump driver module. Removing the fuse or the relay should accomplish what you want.
You can then also disconnect the fuel rail to ensure there is no fuel getting to the engine.

 

Excellent, many thanks JimboV8 All the best

 

You’re very welcome, Arty.

 

Arty If you put the accelerator pedal to the floor and do not lift it then press the starter button the motor will keep turning over until you press the starter button to stop do not lift the peddle until the motor has finished turning over.

Is this even necessary? I'd be very surprised if there was any less oil at the top of the engine after several months than after a few days sat idle. The engine start sequence is programmed to ensure that the oil pressure is up to spec all around the engine before it starts.

Edit to add - if you do want to do this then another method would be to locate and remove the fuel pump fuse first.

 

There will still be enough fuel in the rail to start it.

 

How does the fuel get to the injectors without pressure from the pump?

 

I'll let Jim respond if he wishes but I don't read that second post as being contradictory to the first. I agree on the point about pressure, the direct injection engines run very high fuel pressure, if the pump doesn't run then there just won't be any fuel getting into the cylinders.
