Vauxhall Tigra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Tigra MK 2 - Years 2003-2009
Part: Timing belt
Operation: How to change the distribution of an Opel Tigra

Remove the crankcase, the air box and any pipes that could obstruct your work. Unlock the chain tensioner by holding the pulley still. To remove the timing belt you must make sure that the belt tensioner is not taut. Remove the belt tensioner support bolts. Remove the pulleys and tensioners and then insert the new parts. Now put on the new belt. Finally, put back everything that you initially removed (crankcase, air box, etc.). The timing belt on the Opel Tigra must be changed every 8 years or 80,000 km, if instead it is a chain you can reach double the km. Before doing any maintenance of this type, as it is only recommended for experts, it is best to have an assembly diagram for the distribution of your car.

How do you adjust the clutch cable on the Kia Picanto?

To be able to adjust the clutch cable of the Kia Picanto you need to open the hood so that you have access to the components inside the engine compartment: in order to reach the cable you will need to remove some components on the right side, such as the battery and the air filter. Below them you will find the clutch cable, which will have to be adjusted by screwing or loosening the bolt placed at the end of the cable. This will make the pedal harder or softer; after the adjustment, it will be possible to assemble all the components by closing the hood.
