Inside the Nissan Qashqai, the timing chain replacement is done by opening the bonnet to access the components located within the engine bay: the chain will be on the left side of the engine block and will be accessible after removing the side cover and the valve cover.

Then, by loosening the bolts that secure the chain tensioner, you can reduce the tension of the chain and fit a new one around the respective sprockets; at this point, you can remount the chain tensioner and reposition the other parts.
