How to Replace the Timing Chain on the Fiat Panda 1.3 Multijet?

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

To replace the timing chain on the Fiat Panda 1.3 Multijet, open the bonnet and remove the left side cover of the engine block, under which the timing kit is located. Here, it will be necessary to loosen the nuts that secure the central pins of the sprockets so that these and the corresponding chain can be completely removed. By doing this, you will be able to slip the old chain off the sprockets, and the new spare part can be fitted around the sprockets; these must then be reinstalled on the engine along with the chain, and everything will be covered with the side plastic panel.
