How to Replace the Timing Belt on the Peugeot 206?

Model: Peugeot 206 MK 1 - Years 1998-2012
Part: Timing belt

To replace the timing belt on the Peugeot 206, loosen the bolts securing the front right wheel to detach the rivets holding the inner cover of the wheel arch. Removing this cover will provide access to the components within the engine bay: specifically, you can loosen the tensioner pulley to reduce the tension on the belt and extract it from the top of the engine bay. Once the old belt is removed, install the new one and reassemble all the components that were just removed.
