To replace the timing chain on the Opel Corsa, open the bonnet to remove all obstructing parts located to the left of the engine block. This will allow access to the side gears around which the chain is located.

By loosening the central bolts of the gears, including access from underneath the car, you can reduce the tension on the chain and completely remove it. Once the old chain is out, refit the gears and reinstall all previously removed parts.
