Today we will discover the instructions that will allow us to disassemble and replace the timing belt of the Fiat Tipo 1.6 Multijet. First of all, we open the hood of the car and start by disassembling and removing the engine support on the distribution side, loosening the fixing screws; we lift the car and remove the crankshaft pulley, disconnecting the V-belt first.

At this point, we remove the distribution cover to access the belt, taking the necessary references for the subsequent timing of the engine; we then replace the entire distribution kit.
