Today we will see how to replace the timing belt of the Honda Odyssey. Before starting the timing belt replacement, disconnect the car battery by first removing the negative terminal and then the positive terminal.

During the first removal phase, also disconnect the vehicle's control unit. Remove the air duct and air filter box by unscrewing the screws on the clamp and then the screws on the bottom of the box. Using a socket wrench with a 17 insert, unscrew the nut on the pulley to loosen the tensioner roller.

Remove the timing belt from its seat. Grease the new timing belt and insert it into the roller.

Tighten the pulley and mount the air filter box along with the duct. Connect the control unit and the vehicle battery.
