How do you replace the timing belt on the Fiat 500?

Model: Fiat 500 - Years 2007-2021
Part: Timing belt

To be able to replace the timing belt of the Fiat 500, you need to open the hood to access the engine compartment, corresponding to the left side of the engine block where the belt and pulleys are located. In order to access it, it will be necessary to remove the air filter box and its duct: at this point the central pins of the pulleys can be removed, so that the tension of the belt is reduced, allowing it to be removed. The new belt can then be installed, the pulley nuts will have to be screwed in and the air cleaner box can be installed.

To perform this simple operation, first lift the bonnet. Then, remove the upper engine cover and the plastic side cover that protects the timing belt. To create more space for the job, you can remove components next to the engine, such as the coolant reservoir, the windscreen washer pipe, and the fuel filter. This will allow you to remove the lower engine cover and the right wheel for better access to the area where you will be working. Now, relieve the tension from the tensioner pulley and remove the belt for replacement.
