Model: Fiat Panda 169, MK 2 - Years 2003-2012

In this guide, we will see the main instructions useful for disassembling and replacing the timing belt of the Fiat Panda 1.2 petrol. First of all, we open the engine hood of the vehicle and start disassembling and removing the engine support located on the left, unscrewing the fixing screws; then we lift the vehicle and remove the crankshaft pulley, first disconnecting the V-belt (loosening the tensioner), as shown in the video.
