How do you replace the timing chain of the Nissan Micra?

Model: Nissan Micra K13 - Years 2010-2017
Part: Timing belt

You can go and perform the replacement of the timing chain of the Nissan Micra by lifting the car with a jack or a bridge, so that it is then possible to remove the front right wheel: in this way it will be possible to loosen the screws that fix the chain tensioner and thus reduce the tension of the chain itself. At this point, it will be possible to remove it from the corresponding gears in order to insert the new one: this can now be tensioned and then it will be possible to mount the chain tensioner, checking that everything works in the exact manner.
