To make space, disassemble the front of the vehicle until you can see the timing belt and water pump. To do this, it is also necessary to drain the air conditioning and cooling system.

Remove the belt and disassemble the pump, which is particularly difficult to reach; for this, it is necessary to remove the entire front end. During the disassembly of the front, you will need assistance. To install the timing belt in phase, it is necessary to lock the two pulleys and follow all references.

Adjust the tensioner. At this point, the timing has been completed, and you can proceed to reassemble the vehicle.
