To replace the timing belt on a Jeep Compass, loosen the bolts securing the front right wheel and the corresponding wheel arch. Once these parts are removed, locate the tensioner pulley.

Remove it from its position by loosening the central nut to reduce the tension on the belt. Now, position the new belt around the pulleys and tension it with the pulley.

After installation, check that the engine runs correctly.
