To replace the timing belt on an Opel Corsa, open the bonnet and remove the components located to the left of the engine block, such as the air filter. You will also need to remove the right front wheel along with the corresponding wheel arch liner.

Once these components are removed, loosen the central nut of the tensioner pulley to reduce tension. This will allow you to remove the old belt from its position and replace it with a new one. After replacement, refit all the components you just removed, ensuring everything functions correctly.
