How do you replace the timing belt of the Opel Vivaro?

Model: Vauxhall Vivaro MK 1 - Years 2001-2014
Part: Timing belt

In order to replace the timing belt of the Opel Vivaro, you need to lift the vehicle with a jack, so that it is possible to loosen the bolts that secure the right front wheel: once this is removed, it will be possible to detach the inner wheel arch and access the side of the engine block. By loosening the central nut of the belt tensioner pulley, it will be possible to remove it by reducing the tension of the belt itself: once the old belt is removed, the new one can be inserted to ensure that everything is functioning properly.
