For this simple operation, make space from behind the right wheel arch for easier access. Now, unscrew the bolts securing the cover over the timing belt.

Next, remove the bolt that secures the tensioner pulley in its working position. By relieving the tension on the belt, you can comfortably extract it without much effort.

Remove any parts that obstruct the work, such as the rev sensor. Once removed, you can install the new belt.
