In this video, we will see how to remove the timing belt on a Honda CR-V. Lift the car on a column lift (if necessary, remove the front wheel with a screwdriver and the right wheel arch liner). Use a spanner to loosen the tensioner pulley and slide the belt off its seat.

Use a socket wrench to unscrew the securing bolt of the tensioner pulley, remove the water pump as shown in the video. Fit the new water pump (if removed), the tensioner, and the belt itself, tightening everything with the socket wrench.

Reattach the clips with the wheel arch liner and reassemble the wheel with the tyre on the vehicle.

Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
