Operation: How to replace the alternator belt in the Jaguar X-Type?

In this tutorial, we can see how to replace the alternator belt in the Jaguar X-Type, a relatively simple operation but one that requires a lot of attention and good manual dexterity. First of all, we lift the right front side with a jack, then we remove the wheel, the fender, and the plastic cover of the engine. Next, we locate the tensioner pulley, grip its bolt with a long 10mm wrench, and slightly loosen the tension in order to release the belt. Once completely removed, we can position the replacement belt, making sure to follow the indicated diagram.

First of all we open the front door, on the driver's side, and start pulling the opening lever of the engine hood, in order to open the lock; then let's move to the front of the vehicle and unhook the tab that we find on the central part, above the manufacturer's emblem, as shown in the video. At this point we block the bonnet with the lateral rod; then we accompany the bonnet down to close it again!
