Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra J - Years 2009-2016
Part: Timing belt
Operation: How to replace the timing belt on an Opel Astra 1.8

Before we can start, we will have to go to open the front hood of our Opel Astra 1.8. So let's start by disengaging and removing the engine top cover and belt cover. After that, we will have to lift the front of the vehicle and remove the left front wheel, thus reaching the belt tensioner. We then proceed by going to loosen the belt tensioner that stretches the timing belt. At this point, we can go to extract and remove the belt, and we will have successfully completed the disassembly. To fit the new belt, we will simply have to follow these steps in reverse, and we will have completed the replacement.

How to open the seat of a scooter without the key

If we have to open the saddle on a scooter when we do not have the key, we can find the necessary information and useful information on how to move in the description below and also in the video. The saddle is normally opened by inserting the key in the dashboard and pressing the appropriate control. If we do not have the key available, we can still open it by removing the panel which is placed immediately under the saddle where we rest our feet and intercept the opening cable and then pull it manually. This way the saddle will open.
