How do you replace the timing belt of the Mercedes Class A?

Model: Mercedes Classe A W169 - Years 2004-2012
Part: Timing belt

In order to replace the timing belt of the Mercedes A-Class, you need to lift the car so that the front right wheel is not in contact with the ground: here you will need to loosen the screws that secure the wheel to the corresponding hub, so that it can be removed. The belt at the back can now be located by loosening the central nut of the tensioner pulley; the new replacement part can then be inserted to ensure that everything functions correctly and then reassemble all the disassembled parts.
