How to Replace the Timing Belt on a Fiat Freemont?

Model: Fiat Freemont MK 1 - Years 2011-2016
Part: Timing belt

To replace the timing belt on a Fiat Freemont, open the bonnet to access the components located inside the engine bay: here you will need to loosen the upper engine protection panel and the left side panel. Under the latter, the timing belt will be present, which can be removed from its housing by loosening the tensioner pulley: this will allow you to take out the old belt and replace it with a new spare part. After replacement, reinstall all the protection panels that were removed.
