Chrysler Sebring - Video tutorial

Model: Chrysler Sebring JR, St22 - Years 2000-2005
Part: Timing belt
Operation: Timing belt replacement instructions

It is advisable to replace the timing belt only if they have good knowledge of general mechanics, as a mistake in positioning the belt or fixing some pulley could seriously compromise the engine. Having said this, start by placing the car on a bridge, remove the front right front wheel and apply a support under the engine in order to be able to remove the engine support from the distribution side; then drain the coolant through the radiator drain plug, as the water pump will also need to be removed. Continue by removing the two auxiliary belts by loosening the relative tensioners; rotate the crankshaft pulley so as to align the timing references and disassemble the pulley itself in order to extract the second auxiliary belt; then remove the timing belt covers by moving the alternator to complete the disassembly of the engine support bracket and disconnecting the electrical system sockets. Note the passages of the belt between the various pulleys and loosen the tensioner to be able to remove it only after having checked the alignment of the timing references again. Then proceed with the replacement of the water pump, the return rollers and the tensioners in order to finally reposition the belt. Finally, install what was previously removed, also replacing the auxiliary belts and coolant.
