Replace timing belt on Citroen C5

Model: Citroen C5 X7, MK 2, RD - Years 2008-2017
Part: Timing belt

How to replace the timing belt on Citroen C5? We lift the car on a column or jack bridge (if necessary, we remove the front wheel, with a screwdriver the right wheel guard). Once these operations have been carried out, we raise the engine hood, remove the engine soundproofing panel and the belt cover (plastic or metal). With a suitable fixed wrench we loosen the belt tensioner roller and remove the belt from its seat. With a socket wrench we go to unscrew the tightening pin of the belt tensioner roller, remove the water pump as in the video. We assemble the new water pump (previously disassembled), the belt tensioner and the belt itself, we tighten everything with the socket wrench. Finally we assemble the cover of the belt rollers.
