How to Replace the Timing Belt on the Ford Fiesta?

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 5, MK 5, MK V - Years 2002-2008
Part: Timing belt

To replace the timing belt on the Ford Fiesta, open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay. Specifically, you will need to detach the cover on the left side of the engine block to access the underlying components. Here, you can loosen the central bolts of the pulleys to reduce the tension on the belt and completely remove it. This way, you can fit a new one and finally reassemble all the previously removed components.
