To replace the timing belt on a Citroën C3, open the bonnet to access the components on the left side of the engine bay, where the belt is located. Remove the belt from its housing by loosening the central nuts on the pulleys.

To access the lower pulleys, loosen the nuts securing the corresponding front wheel, removing it along with its wheel arch liner. This will allow you to remove the old belt and replace it with a new spare part.
