How to Replace the Timing Belt on a Daihatsu Sirion?

Model: Daihatsu Sirion MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Timing belt

To replace the timing belt on a Daihatsu Sirion, open the bonnet to access the left side of the engine block. You will find the pulleys around which the belt is arranged: by unscrewing the central pins, you can remove these pulleys and thus reduce the tension on the belt. At this point, the piece can be completely removed, allowing you to insert a new one. After the new belt is in place, reattach the central pins of the pulleys and check that the belt functions correctly.
