This guide is valid not only for the Nissan Qashqai but also for other vehicles from the same manufacturer that use the K9K engine. First, open the bonnet and remove the engine cover.

Next, remove the front wheel and its wheel arch liner. Proceed to dismantle the timing pin and the remaining components, including the pulley, tensioner, and the timing belt itself.

The most delicate part is fitting the new belt, ensuring it is correctly aligned, and then attempting to start the engine. Once done, reassemble everything to complete the job.
