How to Change the Auxiliary Belt on a Peugeot 208

Model: Peugeot 208 A9, MK 1 - Years 2012-2019
Part: V-belt

In this video, you will see how to change the auxiliary belt on a Peugeot 208: first, set aside the tensioner pulley using a 13 mm spanner. Then, remove the toothed trapezoidal belt; take a photo of the belt arrangement or keep a diagram handy to help you fit the new belt in the same position. Now, refit the tensioner pulley in its original position, but only if it is still in good condition; otherwise, this is a good opportunity to replace it. Install the new belt and secure the pulley with the 13 mm spanner. Run the engine to test it.
