How to Replace the Timing Belt on a Ford Fiesta?

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 6, MK 6, MK VI - Years 2008-2017
Part: Timing belt

To replace the timing belt on a Ford Fiesta, access the left side of the engine block. Here, loosen the nuts securing the central pins of the crankshaft and camshaft pulleys. This will reduce the tension on the belt, allowing you to remove it from its housing. Once the old belt is removed, fit the new one around the pulleys, ensuring they are aligned correctly. After installation, reinsert the nuts to tension the belt.
