How to Replace the Timing Belt of the Alfa Romeo 147?

Model: Alfa Romeo 147 MK 1 - Years 2000-2010
Part: Timing belt

Replacing the timing belt of the Alfa Romeo 147 involves removing the front right wheel and the inner cover of the corresponding wheel arch to access the components at the rear. Here, you will find the tensioner roller that needs to be loosened to reduce the tension on the belt. Now, from the engine bay, you can free the belt from the other pulleys and replace it with a new part. After installing the new belt, remount all components that were previously removed.
